Response To Intervention (RTI)

Response to Intervention (RTI) is a multi-tier approach to the early identification and support of students with learning and behavior needs. The RTI process begins with high-quality instruction and universal screening of all children in the general education classroom. Here is SUCCESS Academy’s RTI plan.

Tier 3 Intervention
(few students)

Step 1:
Continuous missing assignments and/or no grade improvement

Teachers: Collaborate with counselors and the academic coach.
Counselors: If student fails to improve after tutor and tracker interventions, or if student breaches terms of contract, student will meet with counselors and may participate in individual and/or group counseling.

Step 2:
Continuous missing assignments and/or no grade improvement after counseling interventions

Administrators: If student's missing assignments/grades fail to improve after all other previous interventions, or if student fails to meet the terms of contract, student and parent will meet with the administration and determine consequence and/or eligibility.
