RtISystem
Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
(Proverbs 19:18, King James Bible)
RtI Philosophy
Confronted data denial
Recognized the time needed to accept change
Established a coherent, non-negotiable model
Shifts in thinkingFrom struggling students as someone else’s problem
to shared accountability for
student outcomes
From a variable hodge-podge of approaches
to a coordinated utilization of district
and campus resources
From a silo of intervention
to a critical component of the
work we do
94% [of problems] belong to the system, 6% are attributable to special causes.
(W. Edwards Deming, The New Economics)
System Components
Improve Tier 1 instruction
