Is This Child Learning? • RTI is a framework designed for all students and addresses learning issues earlier before a child is behind. • RTI integrates assessment and intervention within a multi-level prevention system to maximize student achievement and to reduce behavior problems. • Implementing the RTI process in a school or district takes time, planning, commitment, and resources.
Improved Learning for All Students • RTI is an integrated general education approach that includes: ELL, gifted and talented, and Title I programs. • RTI asks the question “ How can we support the learning of all students, no matter what barriers may exist for them?” • RTI is transformative when implemented effectively.
What’s New for 2011-2012 • Title 1 - 14.5 billion distributed to the 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico, BIE, and the outlying territories. • 275 billion has been appropriated since 1965.
Program Impact • Waivers for 2011-2012 still in USDOE discussion. • The primary factor in the formula is the number of census poor children ages 5-17. • Additional opportunities for early childhood education (birth-4 years old).
Program Impact • Reauthorization will be done during the next several months in parts vs. the whole bill. • Funding Flexibility - Ability to move allocated dollars into other programs.
Continue to Remove Barriers • Differentiate the support students need. • Provide professional learning opportunities through school teams. • Provide high quality instruction and frequent assessment of student progress .
