Do we build in time in our master schedule for MTSS data discussions?

"Our approach to MTSS focuses on the talents and structures of the educators in your school, harnesses and structures their talents in a way that elevates all they have to offer, and builds on their unique histories and skills in order to make equity-based MTSS what is needed to accomplish important educational outcomes for all involved."

In addition, our instructional focus should include all teachers as we have moved away from this. That way, we can look at truly supplying integrated teaching and learning for ALL students. SJK

A shift toward teaching social, emotional, and behavior within academic content universally is a direct link to our vision this year. By doing this, we will encourage the growth mindset of our learners in a situation where they may need to use it. What kind of impact might this have on our students this year?

The strategy for creating a master schedule has always seemed daunting to me! After reading the 5 steps involved, I can see why! These steps are so important though. This makes me wonder about our own schedule. A few years ago we built in an intervention block for each grade level...a time where students receiving interventions were pulled. Each grade level had a designated time. I wonder if this is something we should revisit when thinking about our master schedule? Katy

I'd like to learn more about the intervention block that was in place in a few years ago. Was it effective? Why was it abandoned? LJ

It has worked really well with the DM Scheduling tool, including for Special Services & Interventionists. I wonder if we could "think about staff who are available at various times during the day (p.83)." This all reverts back to the theme, "Mine the System."

Similarly, SH had one for years. The difference between then and now - support staff. There is a drastic difference in the number of support staff we have available to help with interventions than we did previously in the district. I agree that when looking at the master schedule; it is important to look for pockets of time that are considered for small groups or intervention. This would help with special services and MTSS interventions, as well as classroom interventions. Going further, it would be helpful to not have core subjects and intervention blocks overlapped among grade levels. Only so many hours in a day, so it might be wishful thinking.

How can we openly share these steps with each other? (SJ)

These cannot just be quiet sentiments. We must take inventory to ensure that every student has an adult in the building who knows something important about them beyond their test scores.
