  2. Purpose …describe general features, practices, & systems of Multi-Tiered Support Systems(MTSS) “What is MTSS?”

  3. Context

  4. Fixsen & Blase, 2009 Maximum Student Benefits

  5. “Multi-Tiered Systems of Support”…. Whole-school, data-driven, prevention-based framework for improving learning outcomes for all students through layered continuum of evidence-based practices & systems

  6. “Whole School” • All students • All staff members • All families • All school settings

  7. “Data Driven” RULE: Start w/ socially important questions.

  8. “Prevention-based” • Biglan, 1995; Mayer, 1995; Walker et al., 1996

  9. Supporting Social Competence & Academic Achievement “Important Outcomes” OUTCOMES Supporting Decision Making Supporting Staff Behavior DATA SYSTEMS PRACTICES Supporting Student Behavior

  10. Common Language & Behaviors Effective Organizations Common Vision/Values Common Experience Quality Leadership

  11. “Layered Continuum” “Early Triangle”Walker, Knitzer, Reid, et al., CDC(Walker et al., 1995, p. 201)

  12. Tertiary Prevention: Specialized Individualized Systems for Students with High-Risk Behavior CONTINUUM OF SCHOOL-WIDE INSTRUCTIONAL & POSITIVE BEHAVIOR SUPPORT FEW ~5% Secondary Prevention: Specialized Group Systems for Students with At-Risk Behavior ~15% SOME Primary Prevention: School-/Classroom- Wide Systems for All Students, Staff, & Settings ALL ~80% of Students

  17. Intensive, Individual Interventions • Individual Students • Assessment-based • High Intensity • Intensive, Individual Interventions • Individual Students • Assessment-based • Intense, durable procedures • Targeted Group Interventions • Some students (at-risk) • High efficiency • Rapid response • Targeted Group Interventions • Some students (at-risk) • High efficiency • Rapid response • Universal Interventions • All students • Preventive, proactive • Universal Interventions • All settings, all students • Preventive, proactive Responsiveness to Intervention Academic Systems Behavioral Systems 1-5% 1-5% 5-10% 5-10% 80-90% 80-90% ~1996
