  1. RESPONSE TO INSTRUCTION AND INTERVENTION (RtII) PART I: PHILOSOPHY & PROCESS MODELPART II: DOCUMENTATION SYSTEM The School District of Philadelphia 2012-2013

  2. Learning Objectives Part I Review benefits for the transition from CSAP to RtII Understand the philosophy of RtII Identify the key components of the RtII model Take initial steps for building your RtII school plan Part II Use “Interventions,” the online system in Schoolnet

  3. RtII Differences in CSAP & RtII Student Support Model • Tier 3 • Individual Students evaluated for Change of Placement • Level 3 • Small group or Individual supplemental and targeted instruction • Level 2 • Small group supplemental and • targeted instruction • Tier 2 • Individual Student Intervention plans • 60 days to demonstrate progress • Level 1 • All students • Research - based, effective instruction • Progress monitoring through Curriculum Based Assessments • Tier 1 • Small Group supplemental instruction • 30 days to demonstrate progress CSAP

  4. Roll-out plan: Implementation • 2010-2011: Schoolnet online system for documenting individual CSAP intervention plans piloted in select schools • 2011-2012: Schoolnet online system for documenting group interventions plans and implementing the RtIImodel piloted in select schools • 2012-2013: District-wide implementation of RtII • ALL Grades: K-12 • Phase 1 focus areas: Literacy, Behavioral Health, Attendance, Student Discipline • Documentation in the online system in Schoolnet

  5. Roll-out plan: Online System The CSAP database will no longer be in use after the 2011-2012 school year Beginning with the 2012-2013 school year, Interventions, a module in Schoolnet, will replace the CSAP reporting system

  6. Roll-out plan: Online System • The Interventions system will document the following: • Strategic and Intensive academic intervention plans provided through RtII • Positive behavioral interventions in compliance with the State-mandated SAP (Student Assistance Process) • EIS (Early Intervening Services) mandated by Federal law • Truancy interventions in compliance with the State-mandated compulsory attendance procedures and TEP (Truancy Elimination Plan) • Intervention plans will be automatically closed out in the system on the last day of school each year

  7. What Is Response to Instruction and Intervention (RtII)? A multi-level system of support focused on improving learning for ALL students A data-driven model to enable early identification and strategic interventions for students at academic or behavioral risk A shared, collaborative, data-driven decision-making process among professional educators.

  8. RtIIComponents: Speaking a Common Language • Level: The differing intensity of support • Core Program: Research-based curriculum and instruction • Strategies: Instructional tools used broadly across all RtII levels to support learning • Interventions: • Academic : Evidence-based programs that supplement Core Program • Behavioral/Attendance/Discipline : Evidence–based programs or best practices that address the barriers • Screening: • Academic : assessing ALL students a minimum of 3X/year to group students according to risk level • Behavioral/Attendance/Discipline: assessing ALL students on a monthly basis to group students according to risk level • Progress Monitoring: On-going assessment of students identified as at-risk to determine accuracy of screener, and to gauge student progress with selected intervention program

  10. Key Components of RtII Implementation Quality Standards-Based Core Curriculum RtII School Leadership Team Time for Collaboration Time for Intervention Delivery Screening Progress Monitoring Evidence-based Interventions Documentation and Accountability System

  11. RtII School Leadership Team Principal & Assistant Principal “RtII Champion” Teachers Counselor Technology Teacher Leader - TTL Attendance Designee Student Discipline Designee Special Education Liaison – SEL School Psycologist

  12. RtII School Leadership Team Principal & Assistant Principal • Lead RtII as the school’s instructional leaders • Support teachers in delivering high quality core instruction for all students • Build teachers’capacity to deliver high quality interventions • Facilitate use of data to drive instructional practice • Organize school schedule to allow for RtII meetings • Participate in RtII meetings • Regularly review student data in Schoolnet • Regularly review status of intervention plans (task completion and progress monitoring) in Schoolnet

  13. RtII School Leadership Team “RtII Champion” • A designated teacher who is the school-based point person for RtII • Collaborates with the principal to provide coaching for other teachers and school staff in all key components of RtII • Participates in RtII Professional Development offered by Central Office to provide on-going professional development for school staff Teachers • Use data to identify individual students in need of academic and behavior interventions • Be accountable for implementation of academic interventions • Log in to document the delivery regularly (Best Practice: Weekly) • Be accountable for task completion for his/her students • Collaborate with Counselor on behavioral and social-emotional interventions

  14. RtII School Leadership Team Technology Teacher Leader (TTL) • Provide PD for school staff in use of the online system • Troubleshoot related technology issues Counselor • Facilitate process for behavioral health interventions for individual students • Use data to identify individual students in need of Social Emotional interventions, and or Academic Readiness Skills. • Deliver/coordinate/monitor behavioral and social-emotional interventions to individual students • Collaborate with Teachers on behavioral and social-emotional interventions

  15. RTII ProcessRole of the School Counselor

  16. RtII School Leadership Team Attendance Designee Develops a school wide student attendance incentive program. Ensure that the school intervenes in instances where students are excessively absent, late, or cutting class. Coordinate meetings with individual students and/or parents/guardians to assess barriers to attendance Ensure the completion and submission of RtIIattendance documentation for compulsory school-age students with 10+ illegal absences (e.g., C-31, CEH-14) Collaborate with the DHS Provider to ensure compliance with the Truancy Court Order and implementation of Level 3 interventions (e.g., daily report monitoring)

  17. RtII School Leadership Team Student Discipline Designee Ensure implementation of the Code of Student Conduct in response to individual student behaviors Collaborate with RtII Team to identify and implement group-level interventions Collaborate with school teams on research-based violence prevention programs Collaborates with counselor to identify social/emotional barriers Collaborates with counselor to address school wide trends of social/emotional issues Collaborates with counselor to develop behavior support plans for individual students Align interventions with Student Discipline data

  18. RtII School Leadership Team Special Education Liaison - SEL • Collaborates with RTII Leadership Team on the coordination, delivery, and monitoring of interventions that are appropriate both for students in the RTII process and the special education process. • Collaborates with RTII Teams on the analysis, interpretation and application of progress monitoring data to determine when evaluation for special education should be considered for individual students due to continued lack of response to intervention. • Facilitate the process for individual RTII students who are being referred for evaluation for special education services.

  19. RtII School Leadership Team School Psychologist – Consultant to RTII Teams • Provides consultation to the RTII Leadership, Group Plan, and Individual Plan team members on school-wide, classroom, and individual academic, behavioral and social-emotional interventions. • Provides consultation to the RTII Leadership, Group Plan, and Individual Plan team members to determine if referrals for special education evaluation are appropriate. If referrals are appropriate, provides input as to what the evaluation plan should be. If not, provides input as to next steps and a recommended course of action. • Provides consultation to the RTII Leadership, Group Plan, and Individual Plan team members on individual students who have been evaluated for special education services and found to be ineligible.

  20. Key components of RtII: Time for collaboration Purpose • To create dedicated time for the RtII team to analyze student data for the purpose of improving all students’ achievement. Recommended Best Practices • Frequency: • data meetings 1-2 per month • Review screener data every marking period (monthly for attendance) • Review progress monitoring data • Structure: • Dept. meetings, grade group, or other group meeting times • RtII Team present

  21. Key components of RtII: Time for collaboration Outcomes Form consensus on students identified for intervention plans Assign team members for a specific plan Initiate the plan online Task completion and progress monitoring

  22. Key components of RtII: Screeners • Screeners are assessment tools used to assess ALL students • Academic : assessing ALL students a minimum of 3X/year to group students according to risk level • Behavioral/Attendance/Discipline: assessing ALL students on an ongoing basis • To prepare for start of school year, use prior year cycle four data to group students

  23. Key components of RtII: Screeners

  24. Key components of RtII: Screeners ATTENDANCE Screeners used to assess ALL students monthly to group students according to risk level To prepare for start of school year, obtain your list of court involved youth from the prior year. These students will begin the year at Level 3.

  25. Key components of RtII: Screeners Behavioral Health The screener for students who may be in need of Behavioral Health supports will be based on a Student Assistance Team model. Students will be identified using multiple data sources, including teacher and parent recommendations, and then an expert team that includes the parent will identify what interventions would be appropriate. To prepare for start of school year, schedule interagency meetings for all students who are participating or transition into or out of a school based behavioral heath program.

  26. Key components of RtII: Screeners Student Discipline School-wide behavioral expectations – to establish a baseline and are taught at the beginning of the school year Screener used to identify students who require targeted supports based on review of discipline data sources

  27. Key components of RtII: Using IMS data for screening process Instructional Management System - IMS

  28. Key components of RtII: Selecting Interventions • Choose an intervention using the following criteria: • Evidence-based • Matched to student need • Available • Staff are trained to implement with fidelity • Identify evidence-based interventions: • National RTI Center www.rti4success.org

  29. Key components of RtII: Time for Intervention Delivery Time should be allotted/scheduled for interventions to be delivered to the identified students Regular and consistent delivery of the intervention

  30. Key Components of RtII: Progress Monitoring • Progress monitoring (PM) assesses progress of students identified through the screener as “at-risk” • Determines accuracy of screener • Gauges student progress with selected intervention program • The online system requires monthly Progress Monitoring for all interventions, but may be administered more frequently. • PM data should be reviewed collaboratively 1-2 times/month; time for structured and facilitated data analysis should be built into RtII team meeting agenda • Recommended Progress Monitoring Tools: • Assessments built into evidence-based interventions • Some screeners (e.g., DIBELS) • ScholarChip (High Schools)

  31. Philadelphia School District RtII Model Attendance Behavior ~85% of students Level 1 ~10 % of Students Level 2 ~5% of Students Level 3 Small Group/Individual Small Group Discipline Literacy Whole Class

  32. RtII Model For Reading Literacy 2+ years below grade-level (chronically under-performing) Level 3 Goal: Few students require more intensive intervention at this level Within 2 years below grade-level Level 2 Goal: Some students require additional intervention at this level Just at or above grade-level Level 1 Goal: Most students successful at this level All students are provided access to a standards based curriculum and high quality instruction

  33. RtII Model For Attendance 10 or more illegal absences Level 3 Few students at this level 3 or more unexcused and illegal absences Level 2 Some students at this level Level 1 Most students at this level

  34. RtII Model For Behavioral Health Students with a behavioral health diagnosis Level 3 Few students at this level Students who struggle with exhibiting appropriate social skills Level 2 Some students at this level Level 1 Most students at this level

  35. RtII Model For Student Discipline Students with an EH-21 Discipline Referral Level 3 Few students at this level Students with 3 or more suspensions Level 2 Some students at this level Level 1 Most students at this level

  36. Analysis, interpretation and application of data from Level 3 interventions; referral for special education evaluation should be considered if data demonstrate continued lack of response to instruction and intervention. Where is Special Education? • More intensive supplemental interventions, implemented with fidelity • Very frequent progress monitoring • Homogenous grouping • Alternatives to suspension and expulsion 2+ years below grade-level (chronically under-performing) Level 3 Few students at this level Level 2 Some students at this level Consideration for special education evaluation may occur at any time Within 2 years below grade-level Just at or above grade-level Level 1 Most students at this level General Education All three levels are part of a comprehensive educational system. Therefore, the levels should not be viewed as categorical placements or as “gates” to special education supports and services.

  37. Students with IEPs IEP Process IEP Team: Addresses all concerns RtII Documentation System IEP Deliver Intervention Inclusion Deliver IEP Collect data in Interventions Module Supporting data collection system Collect IEP Data; EasyTrac Easy IEP

  38. Students with IEPs • There is a process called the RtIIProcess. • The RtIIprocess uses SchoolNet-Interventions as its data collection tool. • There is a process called the Special Education Process. • The Special Education Process uses EasyIEP and EasyTrac as its data collection tools, once a student has been identified as needing special education services.

  39. Students with IEPs Now, SchoolNet-Interventions can also be used as an additional data collection tool for the Special Education Process. It can be used in addition to, not in place of, the traditional Special Education Process data collection tools, EasyIEP and EasyTrac.
