Response to Intervention Information for Parents
What is RtI?
RtI stands for Response to Intervention. It is an approach schools use to help ALL students, including average, gifted and struggling learners. It is not a special kind of program or book; rather it is a systematic approach to providing every student within a school the support they need on a regular basis.
Many schools in the State of Wisconsin are using this approach to make sure that every student has opportunities to learn at high levels. The goal of RtI is to help all students be successful. Wisconsin’s vision for RtI addresses both academics and behavior, and uses a strengths-based model to systematically provide ALL students with the supports they need to succeed. Various stakeholders from across the state have developed the following guiding principles that provide the vision for an RtI framework in schools and also to serve as a reference point for assessing an enacted system:
• RtI is for ALL children and ALL educators • RtI must support and provide value to effective practices • Success for RtI lies within the classroom through collaboration • RtI applies to both academics and behavior • RtI supports and provides value to the use of multiple assessments to inform instructional practices • RtI is something you do and not necessarily something you buy • RtI emerges from and supports research and evidence-based practice.
