  3. What is RTI? • According to Bender & Shores… • …a process of implementing high-quality, scientifically validated instructional practices based on learners needs, monitoring student progress & adjusting instruction based on students’ responses.

  4. RTI is… • A process, not a program • A mind set • A focus on progress monitoring • A response to individual needs • Differentiating instruction • A three-tiered system of grouping students • A necessary change in order to help our students reach their potential • A scheduled 30 minute period daily called WIN (What INeed) Time where you will get support staff 2 to 3 times per week. WIN Time is from 2:15-2:45 every day. • Student achievement is the responsibility of our entire school community.

  5. RTI Structure EVERY student at Garvy school will receive RTI... Even students in Tier I. RTI is a mind set that will help every student at Garvy School. Garvy is approximately 20%.
