What is RtI
Response to Intervention (RtI)

Texas Education Agency Logo

The implementation of activities associated with Response to Intervention (RtI) is expected to have a positive effect on schools across the state. RtI may be described as a model addressing the needs of all students through a continuum of services which provide:

(1) high-quality instruction and scientific, researched-based, tiered intervention strategies aligned with individual student need; 

(2) frequent monitoring of student progress to make results-based academic or behavioral decisions;

(3) data-based school improvement; and 

(4) the application of student response data to important educational decisions (such as those regarding placement, intervention, curriculum, and instructional goals and methodologies).
