The program is open to individuals with a high school diploma or GED test credential, including Oregon students who complete high school in public school, private school, home school, a correctional facility, or a foster care placement outside of the state. To be eligible for an Oregon Promise award, high school students must have resided in Oregon for at least 12 months prior to college enrollment, earned a high school unweighted cumulative grade point average of 2.5 or higher, completed high school, and earned or attempted no more than 90 college credits through dual-credit programs in high school.

We Have Skills! (WHS): Teaching Social Skills to Early Elementary Students

We Have Skills! (WHS) is a supplemental, video-based social skills program for early elementary students that targets the development of social skills, including guidance on how to listen, ask for help, follow directions, do the best you can, follow the rules, work out strong feelings, and get along. WHS consists of three components: instructional materials (including lesson plans, instructional videos, and supplemental activities), teacher professional development, and student assessment. Lessons include two main segments: a 5-to 10-minute discussion using questions from the lesson plan, and a 5-minute video lesson. Instruction is delivered over eight weekly sessions, and teachers are encouraged to implement activities such as guided practice through songs, role play, and learning materials. The program incorporates a reinforcement system where students receive skill tickets, student-managed tally sheets, parent notes of skill achievement, and student certificates of mastery.

Teach to One: Math (TtO): Personalized Learning for Middle School Mathematics

Teach to One: Math (TtO) is a blended learning intervention that targets middle school mathematics. TtO redesigns classroom instruction to match students with the specific content that best supports their academic growth. The program uses a 'skills map' to outline the skills students must master and their dependencies, and each student's individual learning profile is generated from a baseline assessment and updated frequently based on student performance. Students are physically reorganized into one large room containing multiple teachers and students from different classes simultaneously, and they meet in their Math advisory (Ma) sections to take a short, multiple-choice 'exit ticket' to determine their mastery of that day's content.

Fractions Intervention with and without Self-Regulation with Growth Mindset (SR-GM) Component

The intervention, referred to as Super Solvers (3rd grade-revised), is a 13-week program that targets at-risk third-grade students' understanding of fractions, specifically fraction magnitude. The program includes three 35-min sessions per week, delivered to pairs of students. It focuses on fraction magnitude, comparing, ordering, and placing fractions on number lines, and word problems to contextualize fractions as numbers in everyday contexts. The program uses explicit, structured cognitive strategy instruction, with tutors introducing new topics with worked examples, modeling efficient solution strategies, and providing corrective feedback for incorrect responses. The program also incorporates a motivational system focused on on-task behavior and includes activities such as Fraction Flash, Problem Quest, and Power Practice to build flexibility and speed with fraction magnitude component skills.

Early Reading Professional Development Interventions: Institute Series and Institute Series Plus Coaching

The study evaluated two professional development (PD) interventions for early reading instruction: an institute series (treatment A) and the institute series plus coaching (treatment B). The institute series consisted of eight days of content-focused institutes and seminars, while the coaching component added a half-time coach in each participating school to work with second-grade teachers. The PD interventions aimed to improve teacher knowledge, instructional practice, and student achievement in reading.
