We currently have universal screeners but are working toward better common formative assessments. In terms of evaluation, we do not yet have a committee but work in PLCs with grade level teams with additional support staff and admin to analyze data. Interventions are somewhat clearly assigned to each Tier (more so reading than math) but that is relatively new.]]> 2022-02-08 14:45:24 UTC https://padlet.com/koubekm/MTSS/wish/2035633367 Awareness/Implementation https://padlet.com/koubekm/MTSS/wish/2035634087 Our district needs a common language and vision for MTSS.

There is a definite lack of knowledge throughout the school with implementation,  research-based strategies, and data- collection/ analyzing. Strength: my position, MTSS coordinator, was create this year, and it has been beneficial in helping fill in the knowledge gaps. We have held PD on the complete process, and that helped teachers with the implementation process.
