What is MTSS? MTSS is. . . MTSS is NOT. . . A framework for effective problem solving to improve student outcomes A single curriculum or program Just for struggling students For ALL students including those that are English learning and gifted A one size fits all prescription Flexible to meet the needs unique to districts and schools Based on assumptions or anecdotal info The responsibility of one person Data informed and evidence based A pre-referral process Collaborative team-based decision making (TST) A framework to make decisions about the need for further services Incorporates TST, Rt. I, and PBIS

Data Based Problem Solving Teams analyze all available information to plan supports and implement

Data Based Problem Solving Teams analyze all available information to plan supports and implement effective instructional strategies matched to student need. Decisions made based on data are more likely to be effective and efficient Focus changes from “what was taught” to “what was learned” Ongoing data collection and thoughtful analysis to assess the quality of instruction, student performance, intervention practices, and efficient use of resources
