Empowering schools with data-driven intervention strategies

What is RTI/MTSS?

RTI (Response to Intervention) and MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports) are systematic approaches designed to support student learning by continuously collecting data and implementing differentiated interventions. These frameworks help identify students who need additional support and provide targeted solutions to ensure academic success.

  • RTI focuses primarily on academic support and intervention.

  • MTSS takes a broader approach, incorporating both academic and behavioral support systems.

Key components of an effective
RTI/MTSS strategy

To build a successful intervention system, schools need reliable student growth data. Here’s how each of the five assessment methods integrates into MTSS:
Universal screening
