Response to Intervention
Response to Intervention
(RtI) is a process that provides intervention and
educational support to all students at increasing levels of
intensity based on their individual needs. The goal is to
prevent deficiencies and intervene early so that students
can be successful. RtI is being incorporated in Columbia
County schools this school year.
RtI includes:
- High quality, research-based
instructional and behavior supports in general
education.
- School-wide screening to determine
which students need closer monitoring or additional
interventions.
- Multiple tiers of increasingly
intense, research-based interventions matched to the
needs of the student.
- Use of collaborative problem
solving to develop, implement, and monitor
interventions.
- Continuous monitoring of student
progress to determine if instruction/interventions are
effective in meeting the needs of the student.
- Follow- up to ensure that the
instruction/interventions were implemented as planned.
- Active parent involvement
throughout the process of pursuing solutions that lead
to increased success.
