Schools can use the guiding questions to examine their current practices to determine existing systems and structures that can be leveraged and determine where additional practices need to be created.*In New Mexico and in reference to the Martinez/Yazzie consolidated lawsuit, at-risk means: Native American students, students with disabilities, students who are English learners, economically disadvantaged students, and students who are highly mobile.
