The Summit on RTI at Work™
- $829.00 per person for teams of 5 or more
Mike Mattos discusses the interchangeability of RTI and MTSS,
supported by 50 years of research.
There is a universal truth—an undeniable fact—that impacts every student and educator, in every classroom, at every school: all students do not learn the same way. As educators, we can assume that by the end of every daily lesson, unit of study, grading term, and school year, some students will not have mastered all the essential curriculum they have been taught. For any school or district truly dedicated to equity and ensuring all students learn at high levels, responding effectively when students struggle—especially now, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on student learning—is top of mind.
Response to Intervention (RTI/MTSS) is proven to be the best way to systematically respond when students don’t learn. According to acclaimed researcher John Hattie, RTI has an exceptional impact rate of 1.29 standard deviations of growth per year, which is equivalent to two to three grade levels of growth in a single school year (2020). RTI is not a series of implementation steps to cross off on a list, but an ongoing, collaborative process to ensure each child receives the time and support needed to achieve success. Our RTI at Work™ approach—which is built upon the proven PLC at Work® process—leverages the expertise of the entire school staff to ensure high levels of achievement for all students.
Deepen your expertise with sessions on behavior, scheduling, English learners, leadership teams, progress monitoring, and more designed to increase individual and collective efficacy. Learn directly from experts and practitioners who have firsthand experience implementing the RTI at Work process.
