Is This Child Learning?

• RTI is a framework designed for all students and
  addresses learning issues earlier before a child
  is behind.
• RTI integrates assessment and intervention within
  a multi-level prevention system to maximize
  student achievement and to reduce behavior
  problems.
• Implementing the RTI process in a school or
  district takes time, planning, commitment, and
  resources.

Improved Learning for All Students

• RTI is an integrated general education approach
  that includes ELL, gifted and talented, and
  Title I programs.
• RTI asks the question How can we support the
  learning of all students, no matter what barriers
  may exist for them?
• RTI is transformative when implemented
  effectively.
