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.
