Response to Intervention’s goal is to meet the needs of all students
at risk for failure, whether or not they qualify for a legislated program.
Response to Intervention is an individual, comprehensive, student-centered
problem-solving process that can be implemented in the general education
classroom. Educators employ research-based interventions in their efforts
to increase student achievement. Response to Intervention then uses
systematic monitoring of student progress to track student success. A
student’s lack of response to regular education interventions becomes the
determinant of need for additional, more intense interventions.
Within each classroom, the teacher responds to the academic needs of the
students. The type and degree of each accommodation will vary to the extent
necessary for the student to benefit. In most cases, very little
specialized instruction will be necessary. For those students that need
additional assistance, classroom interventions are necessary.
In a RTI
system, all students receive instruction in the core curriculum supported by
strategic and intensive interventions when needed. Therefore, all students,
including those with disabilities, are found in Tiers I, II, and III.
Important features, such as universal screening, progress monitoring,
fidelity of implementation and problem solving occur within each tier.
