Wisconsin RtI Center Our mission is to support schools through the phases and sustainability of their RtI system implementation. The core reason that the Wisconsin RtI Center exists is to develop, coordinate and provide high-quality professional development and technical assistance… as well as to gather, analyze and disseminate RtI implementation data to enhance the support of schools’ implementation.

Principles for RtI in Wisconsin: Principles for RtI in Wisconsin 1. RtI is for ALL children and ALL educators. 2. RtI must support and provide value to effective practices. 3. Success for RtI lies within the classroom through collaboration. 4. RtI applies to both academics and behavior. 5. RtI supports and provides value to the use of multiple assessments to inform instructional practices. 6. RtI is something you do and not necessarily something you buy. 7. RtI emerges from and supports research and evidence based practice.

ALL students should have access to solid Tier 1/universal level instruction. What percent of ALL students are successful in Tier 1/universal? How data is disaggregated? Does data indicate that your system is healthy? Does data indicate a population is being underserved? Analyzing Process for Tier 1/Universal

Using data to identify concerns What data to monitor Attendance, grades, behavior referrals Screening/achievement data What question to answer What priority areas do we need to celebrate and address? What questions to ask of Level, Trend, Peaks How does our data compare with last year? How does our data compare with national/regional norms? How does our data compare with our preferred/expected status? If a problem is identified, then ask What additional data do we need to make an informed decision?

Precision Problem Statements What is the problem? Where/when is the problem evident? Who is involved? Why is the problem sustaining?

Behavioral Precision Problem Statement In the month of November, only 60 % of our population responded to our Tier 1 behavioral instruction ( received 0-1 ODR). Most reported behaviors are occurring on the playground, during the lunch break, across all grade levels. There are large group of playground supervisors that may not have been part of the universal Kick Off on the playground. Additionally, the snow on the ground means that there are some additional playground rules that need to be taught universally.

The student outcome data is below the expected goal of at least 80% of sixth grade students meeting the benchmark by a difference of 15%. 6 th grade teachers are inconsistent in what they provide at the core. The new district reading curriculum is in classrooms, but teachers have not had the opportunity to receive PD on this curriculum. Academic Precision Problem Statement 65 % 25% 10 %

Academic Selected and Intensive (Tier 2/3) Intervention Tracking Tool: Graph Sample % of students responding to the intervention

Analyzing Tier 2/Selected & Tier 3/ Intensive Levels of Support What % of students participated in tier 2/selected levels of support? Tier 3/intensive? What % of students responded to those interventions? Are at least 70-80% of students involved in intervention responding? – No -Address system of intervention – Yes – what do you do for those students who are not responding What are the most common areas of need?

We want to go from this… “ CICO is not working.” Precision Statement: 50% of students involved in CICO are not making progress. Most of these students are in 8 th grade. 8 th grade teachers consistently write negative comments on the DPR. …to this Are our data rules identifying the correct students? Is our full staff oriented in the CICO intervention and using it appropriately? Is our location easily accessible, and our greeter always positive? Are there patterns in the data? Grade level, day of the week, time of day? Are subgroups of students over- represented?

We want to go from this… “Some of our interventions do not seem to be effective.” Based on the Academic Selected and Intensive Tracking Tool, data indicates 47% of students receiving Comprehension interventions at the Selected level and 58% at the Intensive level are not responding and at the current rate will not be expected to meet end of year grade-level expectations. 33% of students receiving a Selected Vocabulary intervention are not responding and at the current rate will not be expected to meet end of the year grade-level expectations. We have not finalized our formal intervention time so there is an inconsistent time frame for interventions. Students seem to be confused about when to come, as do teachers. Attendance has been sporadic at best. We have not set up a consistent fidelity check process for our interventions. The progress monitoring data collection process is not consistent among teachers. …to this. Is the intervention being provided with fidelity? Are the students attending consistently? Why not? Is the intervention a good match for student need? Are any sub-groups in the population over represented?
