Our new accountability system has two
overarching objectives
Growth for all students, every year
and
Faster growth for those students who are
furthest behind

Beliefs
• Every student can learn, demonstrate growth, and has the right to actively participate in
high quality, research-based education that maximizes their potential in the least
restrictive environment.
• Specialized education is a continuum of services, not a place.
• Relationships with all stakeholders, based on respect and understanding will result in
making decisions in the best interest of ALL students.
• Every staff member has the responsibility to teach, support and encourage ALL students.
• Strong leadership at every level is the foundation of a collaborative and inclusive
environment that supports ALL students.
• High quality professional learning in conjunction with family and community support,
empowers all stakeholders to collaboratively build capacity for the success of ALL
students.

What is the difference?
•What is NOT response to intervention?
•What IS response to intervention?
4
Response to Intervention is NOT:
• Just a Special Education initiative
• Only for students with disabilities
• Only for beginning reading
• A new way to identify students with SLD
• A way of reducing costs or eliminating special education or the LD category
• This year’s summer reform or a short-term implementation based on “RTI in a Box”
• A way to fix schools with weak core instruction

Response to Intervention Is:
• A set of processes for coordinating high quality service delivery in schools
• A multi-tiered, layered instructional approach that prevents problems first, and
then brings increasingly intense interventions to students who don’t respond
• Making instructional decisions based on data
• Integrating entitlement programs with general education
• Providing relevant data for SLD identification
• Primary goal: Improving academic (and behavioral) outcomes for all students by
eliminating discrepancies between actual and expected performance.

Policy Change
–As of July 1, 2014, RTI² will be the framework used by
teams to identify a student with a Specific Learning
Disability.
–Final reading approval from State Board of Education
was June 21, 2013.
7
Required Elements:
• Universal Screening: The Universal Screening tool will be skills-based and provide national
norms. It will be administered 3 times a year for grades K-8 and is recommended for
grades 9-12 (see Component 1.3 of the Implementation Guide).
• Tier I: Core instruction will be provided to ALL students using grade-level Common Core
State Standards in ELA and Mathematics.
• Tier II and Tier III: Tiered interventions will be provided in addition to the core instruction
provided at Tier I. Interventions will be research-based and will address a student’s area of
deficit. They will be provided within the time frames described in Components 3.2 and 4.2
of the RTI² Manual.
• Progress Monitoring: Progress monitoring will occur in the specific area of deficit at the
frequency described in Components 3.3 and 4.3 of the RTI² Manual.
8
Required Elements:
• District and School RTI² Teams: District and School RTI² Teams will be established
per the guidelines outlined in Component 1.2. School teams will meet every 4.5
weeks at a minimum to make data-based decisions that inform
instruction/intervention.
• Fidelity of Implementation: Fidelity monitoring will occur as described in
Components 2.6, 3.6 and 4.6 of the RTI² Manual and Implementation Guide.
• Parent Contact/Communication: Parents will be notified of student progress as
described in Component 1.6 of the RTI² Manual and Implementation Guide.
• Highly trained personnel: Highly trained personnel will provide interventions.
Highly-trained personnel are those who are adequately trained to deliver the
selected intervention as intended with fidelity.
9
10
At All Tiers
•District and school teams
•Universal Screener
•Assessments (ongoing and progress monitoring)
•Recommended Instructional Time
•Fidelity Monitoring
•Parent involvement
•Professional Development
11
12
Tier I - Instruction
• Classroom instruction for all - Common Core State Standards
• Research shows 80-85% of students will respond to Tier I
• Recommended Instructional Time
– ELA: K-2/150 min; 3-5/90 min; 6-12/55 traditional 90 block
– Math: K-1/60 min; 2/75min; 3-5/90 min; 6-12/55 traditional 90 block
• Ongoing Assessments (grade level checks, benchmarks)
– Collect data points, determine patterns, track individuals and groups,
– Guide instruction (teach/assess/monitor/adjust)
• Fidelity Monitoring (Team, Student Data, etc…)
• Universal Screener (K-8, recommended 9-12)(students below 25% go to Tier II)
13
Core Instruction and English Learners
• English language learners can reach the same high content- area standards as
all students, but they need different pathways.
• All students receive core instruction (Tier I)
– With an endorsed ESL teacher, for the entire ELA time, using district uniform core curriculum supported by
scaffolding and sheltered instruction
– If not in an ESL class, due to limited EL population, then in the general education classroom where the ESL teacher
provides appropriate instructional supports to make grade-level course work comprehensible
• Benefits of core instruction for an EL:
– Opportunities for ELs to interact with proficient English speakers and other language learners
– Opportunities for ELs to build on their strengths, prior experiences, and background knowledge
– Opportunities to be exposed to rigorous grade level academic standards, exposure to grade level academic
vocabulary like peers
– Opportunities to learn expectations and student accountability for learning and self-monitoring
– Opportunity to build peer support
14
Core instruction and what it may look like for an EL
• Whole class explicit direct instruction using core text
• EL has structured seating where peer support is available for guidance/ modeling
• EL has sentence frames and starters to engage in cooperative learning discussion
with peers (language discussion cards)
• Steps to comprehension references are visible in the classroom for the EL to
access, for example, steps/ key words used to locate facts and opinions to
determine validity with a selection.
• Literacy/ Math centers have defined objectives, expectations, step by step
procedures, graphics, illustrations, academic vocabulary, examples, and purpose
for learning during small group instruction.
• Opportunity to integrate reading, writing, listening, and speaking across the
curriculum.
15
Areas of Deficit: A Universal Screener
will explicitly measure…
• Basic Reading Skills (letters, letter sounds, phonological awareness, phonics)
• Reading Comprehension
• Reading fluency
• Written expression
• Math calculation (column addition, basic facts, complex computation,
decimals, fractions, conversions, percentages, etc.)
• Math reasoning/problem solving (number and operations, base ten, place
value, measurement and length, fractions, geometry, algebra, expressions,
linear equations etc.)
16
What does your Universal Screener tell you?
Standards based
Skills based
• Intervene on a standard
• Intervene on skill deficit/need
• Tells you what to reteach/remediate
(Tier 1)
• Warning system for your most at-risk
students and identifies discrete skill
deficit(s)
• Adaptive task changes based on
student performance
• Does not consistently measure the
same skill over and over to determine
if intervention is working
• Not adaptive. Task does not change
based on student performance
• Consistently measures same skill
• Independent of grade level standard
17
What is the difference?
Reteaching/ remediation
vs.
Intervention
18
Reteaching VS. Intervention
Reteaching
Tier I-Common Core Standards
• Goal is to reteach standards that students
are struggling with rather than specific skill
deficits. These are your “bubble kids”.
Standards Based Assessment:
• Benchmark Assessment
• Summative Assessment
• Formative Assessment
Intervention
Tier II/III/Special Education Intervention
• Goal is provide research based
interventions aligned to specific skill
deficit(s) as identified by a universal
screener.
Skills Based Assessment:
• Skills based universal screener aligned to
area(s) of deficit
• Skills based Progress Monitoring specific to
area(s) of deficit
• Formative assessment

Tier II Interventions
• A change in intervention will be considered within each tier before moving to the
next tier of intervention.
• 8-10 data points (if progress monitoring every other week) OR 10-15 data points
(if progress monitoring weekly) are needed to make a sound data based decision.
• Number of data points reflects empirical research required to make an informed
data based decision.
• The intervention must have empirical evidence supporting its use in remediating
the area of suspected disability (i.e., Basic Reading Skills).
• A skills based progress monitoring tool must be able to provide evidence that the
student did not make a sufficient amount of progress in the area of deficit.
27
Tier II Intervention and the English Leaner
• If students fall below the 25th percentile on the universal screener and they have not
acquired Intermediate Fluency based on the English Language Proficiency Assessment,
then ELs will receive research-based and rigorous ESL services.
(60 minutes outside core instruction)
• If students fall below the 25th percentile on the universal screener and they have acquired
Intermediate Fluency based on the English Language Proficiency Assessment, then ELLs
will receive RTI² interventions in their specific area of need following the guidelines put
forth in the RTI² manual. Fluent language learners can access the language of academic
interventions and can benefit from the intervention. ELLs may take longer to respond to
intervention given their limited English Language proficiency.
• An ESL teacher will be part of the school level RTI² team when an ELL is being placed in or
moved out of an intervention. Progress monitoring data should be presented and an ESL
teacher should be present when discussing the need for a parent meeting.
28
29
Does the student NEED more Intensive
Intervention(s)?
•Students may immediately require Tier III intensive intervention.
– If students are below the 10th percentile or 1.5 to 2.0 grade levels behind.
– Your data team should make these decisions on an individual basis.
•Students who are immediately placed in Tier III level intervention
must receive the minimum number of recommended minutes of
intervention.
•The purpose of immediately placing a student in Tier III intervention
is to increase the intensity of the intervention, not to shorten the
duration of the intervention period.
30
Tier III Interventions
• A change in intervention will be considered within each tier before moving to the
next tier of intervention.
• 8-10 data points (if progress monitoring every other week) OR 10-15 data points
(if progress monitoring weekly) are needed to make a sound data based decision.
• Number of data points reflects empirical research required to make an informed
data based decision.
• The intervention must be more intense than the intervention provided at Tier II.
• A skills based progress monitoring tool must be able to provide evidence that the
student did not make a sufficient amount of progress in the area of deficit.
31
Tier III Intervention and the English Leaner
• If students fall below the 10th percentile on the universal screener and they have not
acquired Intermediate Fluency based on the English Language Proficiency Assessment,
then ELs will receive research-based and rigorous ESL services.
(60 minutes outside core instruction)
• If students fall below the 10th percentile on the universal screener and they have acquired
Intermediate Fluency based on the English Language Proficiency Assessment, then ELLs
will receive RTI² interventions in their specific area of need following the guidelines put
forth in the RTI² manual. Fluent language learners can access the language of academic
interventions and can benefit from the intervention. ELLs may take longer to respond to
intervention given their limited English Language proficiency.
• The intervention must be more intense than the intervention provided at Tier II. An ESL
teacher will be part of the school level RTI² team when an ELL is being placed in or moved
out of an intervention.

33
Student Screening: Does this require permission?
•Students may be screened by a specialist (e.g., school psychologist
or reading specialist) at any time within the tiers to provide
instructional and/or program planning information.
•Consent is not required for screenings that inform
instruction/interventions within the tiers.
Example: Phonics screening to determine specific
interventions.
34
Initial Evaluations
•If data indicates a student’s progress is not sufficient, then the team
may obtain Notice and Consent for Initial Evaluation.
•The team must complete all evaluations and establish the student’s
eligibility for service within the initial evaluation timeline.
•The student will remain in intervention and will continue to be
progress monitored while the requested evaluations are being
completed.
•All information collected including the student’s responsiveness to
intervention will be a part of the student’s eligibility determination.
35
Beginning July 1, 2014, RTI² will be the framework used to
identify students with a Specific Learning Disability.
Underachievement and insufficient response to intervention are not primarily
the result of exclusionary factors.
36
Re-evaluations as of July 1, 2014
• All re-evaluations for students with a Specific Learning Disability will be grounded
in progress monitoring data.
• Existing data including ongoing assessments of progress and focused/diagnostic
evaluations will be reviewed through the Re-evaluation Summary Report to
determine if additional information is needed.
• A gap analysis will be completed and the student’s ROI will be calculated in order
to determine the amount of services/intervention required to close the
achievement gap.
• The level of service required (special education versus general education) will be
used to negate or substantiate continued eligibility.
37
What happens if a Parent Requests an
Evaluation?
• The team must complete the agreed upon components of the evaluation within
the initial evaluation timeline.
• The student may be eligible for services as a student with a Specific Learning
Disability based only on the RTI² Framework.
– No option to use discrepancy model.
• If the team lacks sufficient evidence to establish the student’s eligibility for
services:
– the team may agree to request an extension of the evaluation timeline.
OR
– the student will be made ineligible until sufficient data can be collected.
38
Consider this…Special Education is not a place!
It is the most Intensive Intervention!
Special Education Interventions:
– The student will remain in core, differentiated instruction (Tier I) within the
general education curriculum to the greatest extent possible.
– The same problem solving approach used in the general education RTI²
framework will be used in special education.
– Interventions will be tailored to the student in the area of identified disability,
and progress toward their IEP goals will be monitored weekly or every other
week.
– If students fail to respond to interventions provided through special education,
an IEP team meeting will be reconvened.
39
Consider this…Special Education is not a place!
It is the most Intensive Intervention!
• After the team determines an area of deficit, the student will receive a research
based intervention in his or her specific area of need. Students will receive
progress monitoring in the area of deficit and parents will be notified.
• Students receiving special education intervention will receive their intervention
outside of core instruction to the greatest extent possible.
• Special education intervention will be the most intensive interventions provided.
• Students may receive intervention from special education and general education
at the same time. Focus on the data!
• EA’s are used to help children access the core instruction. They are not the
intervention.
