Based on years of research and informed by the research of Dr. Mark Shinn, schools and districts will learn how to design a multi-tiered model with appropriate prevention and intervention materials, assessments, and processes to ensure regular education and special education services meet the needs of students. The RtI/MTSS model replaces the outmoded “wait to fail” method of identifying students for special education services after it is too late. Participants at the three-day institute will learn what comprises the three tiers; what types of assessments are necessary to make this model work; how to determine core, supplemental, and intervention materials; and guidelines for establishing a problem-solving approach and setting up teams. Through case studies, participants will apply the techniques and processes they learn each day.
Note: This institute is designed for districts/school leadership teams new to RtI and multi-tier systems. Following this institute, and for schools/districts already knowledgeable about multi-tier models, CORE offers expert technical assistance on site to design and implement your own RtI system. Call for details.
