What is RTI?

• RTI is a systematic problem-solving process designed to:
  • Allow for earlier identification of students’ difficulties
  • Provide students with a level of instructional intensity matched to their
    demonstrated response to intervention
  • Provide a data-based method for evaluating the effectiveness of instructional
    approaches and changing/improving them
• RTI is intended to reduce the need for special education by improving and providing
  services early
• RTI services are individualized and based on evidence-based strategies.
