Campbell County Schools Response to Intervention

Welcome!

We at Campbell County Schools are proud of our work in developing Response to Intervention protocol within our district.  With a willingness to do “whatever it takes”, we believe that the tiered interventions available can enable all students to learn at high levels! RTI process is “the practice of providing high quality instruction and intervention matched to student skill needs, monitoring student progress frequently to make changes in instructional goals, and applying child response data to important educational decisions.”
NEA (2006) Role of General Education Teachers in the RTI Process

The Core Principles of RTI include:

• We can effectively teach all children
• Intervene early
• Use a multi-tier model of service delivery
• Use a problem-solving methodology
• Use research-based, scientifically validated interventions/instruction
• Monitor student progress to inform instruction
• Use data to make decisions
• Use assessments for three different purposes:  (1) screening; (2) diagnostics; and (3) progress monitoring

Where are Campbell County Schools in this process?

• We have chosen AIMSweb as our district-wide assessment tool for universal screening and progress monitoring.
• We have trained all regular education teachers, special education teachers, intervention teachers, and paraeducators working with students in Kindergarten through 3rd Grade to administer assessment tools.
• Fall, Winter, and Spring benchmark (universal screening) dates are incorporated in the district-wide assessment plan.  The Fall benchmark was completed in August.  The Winter benchmark was completed in the first week of December and the Spring benchmark will occur in early May.
• Currently, schools are in the process of progress monitoring all students receiving supplemental instruction/intervention (TIER 2, TIER 3, and special education).
• Schools are utilizing grade-level meetings to discuss/analyze data and match students to interventions and will soon begin to analyze students’ response to those interventions (Analysis of Data Points).
• Building-level RTI teams have been formed and are/will use a problem-solving approach to address students that are not responding to supplemental intervention. (Analysis of Data Points and Request for Individual Intervention)
