      A study evaluated the effectiveness of the 1994-95 Reading Recovery program as implemented in the Columbus, Ohio, public schools. The program featured individualized one-on-one lessons provided by 69 specially trained teachers serving 546 pupils. Data included results of administration of Metropolitan Achievement Tests and Scott Foresman text reading level testing. The treatment group consisted of the 237 pupils who were either discontinued (161) or received 60 or more lessons but not discontinued (76). Resulted indicated that (1) of the 237 treatment group pupils, 218 (92%) displayed over time each of the 3 strategic processing behaviors (monitoring reading, constructing meaning, and integrating sources of information); (2) of the 237 pupils in the treatment group retention data were available for 232 pupils; of these 232 pupils, 220 (94.8%) were not retained (criterion was 75.0%); (3) of the treatment group of 237 pupils, 209 (88.2%) read 5 or more books at text reading level 8 or above (criterion was 50.0%); (4) 4.6% of the 219 Total Reading evaluation sample students were at grade level, while 90% were below the 37th percentile and still eligible for Chapter 1 services; (5) of the 221 Reading Comprehension evaluation sample pupils, 8.1% were at grade level, while 80.5% were below the 37th percentile; (6) the average normal curve equivalent (NCE) score for the 219 Total Reading evaluation sample pupils was 31.2 NCEs, and the average NCE score for the 221 Reading Comprehension sample on the posttest was 35.5 NCEs; and (7) 648 different parents or guardians were involved in some way with the program. Findings suggest continuation of the program with attention given to 7 recommendations. (Contains 13 figures of data.) (RS)
