Note: A student should not be referred to IPST if it
is known that the problem is instructional,
curricular, or environmental in nature and can be
handled within the Teacher Data Team problemsolving process
Step 8: (Decision Point)

NOTE: Criteria for referring a student to IPST must show a
significant discrepancy between student & benchmarks, student
and peers, and insufficient learning growth to close the gap in
Tier 1 and Tier 2 data
Determine focus and setting
of intervention (See
attached for suggested STS
tools for interventions)
Determine if intervention
will be progress monitored
weekly, bi-weekly or triweekly
Document intervention plan
and monitor intervention
attendance on Group

Begin A3 documentation
Begin Progress Monitoring
Cycles (JFT OPM-Tier 2)
Progress Monitoring should
occur consistently every 2/3
weeks as specified by

concludes:

Gap in Tier 1 data from student to
peers
Gap in learning rate in Tier 2 data
Collects behavior data if necessary
Gathers more data if necessary
Determines if Tier 3 interventions
are warranted or student is ready
