Response to Intervention

WHAT IS RTI?

Response to intervention (RTI) is a process used by educators to help students who are struggling with a skill or lesson; every teacher will use interventions (a set of teaching procedures) with any student to help them succeed in the classroom-it's not just for children with special needs or a learning disability. If a student is struggling, his or her teacher will use test scores and other measures of progress to choose a researched and proven intervention suited to help the child learn. If a child does not respond to the initial interventions, more focused interventions are used to help the child master the skill.


RTI strategies can be used to address both academic and behavioral needs. At Hemlock, we call this Target Time (academics) and PBIS (behavior).
