RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION (RtI)
 
Response to Intervention is encouraged in federal and state law as an effective way to support high achievement for all students through a general education initiative.  The SW/WC Service Cooperative has staff to work with school and district teams to implement the Response to Intervention framework.

Tier 1
 
“The focus [of Tier I] is on improving core classroom instruction in academics and behavior that ALL students receive. Tier I instruction is designed to address the needs of the majority of a school’s students. Skills are taught using explicit instruction of skills and strategies along with  differentiated instruction to meet the diverse needs of students
 
Tier 2
 

Tier 2 provides small group academic and behavior interventions for students not making adequate progress in the core curriculum. Students in Tier 2 receive increasingly intensive academic or behavior instruction matched to their needs based on results of continuous progress monitoring. Instruction in Tier 2 typically involves small groups of students focused on the targeted area/s of deficit.

 
Tier 3
 

Tier 3 is a progression of Tier 2 if previous interventions did not show adequate progress.  Tier 3 provides individualized intervention, ideally in a one-on-one setting. Tier 3 interventions are more intensive to target the student’s academic or behavioral skill deficits for remediation of existing problems and the student’s progress is monitored more frequently.
