RISS RtI Project Summary
The RISS (Response to Intervention Support System) project is funded with a Maine Department of Education IDEA professional development grant. RISS supports Response to Intervention (RtI) system design and implementation in two demonstration districts - RSU 10 and RSU 38. Project Goals:
- Increase the number of effective RtI systems in a majority of the schools in each RSU.
- Increase opportunities for collaborative work and learning among special educators, CDS staffs, and other educators in the two pilot RSU’s.
- Increase the number of schools in the two RSU’s using a continuous improvement model to implement and sustain RtI systems over time.
- Increase the information available on effective school and district RtI system implementation.
RtI Tools and Processes
With its RSU partners, RISS is developing and disseminating RtI implementation tools and processes, including:
- Comprehensive classroom, school, and district RtI needs assessments.
- Tips on how to use needs assessments to design effective RtI systems.
- School and district action planning frameworks.
- “White papers” describing lessons learned and the recommendations of project study groups exploring solutions to RtI implementation issues.
- A school RtI collaborative review process to provide feedback and opportunities for reflection on RtI implementation and next steps.
- The web-based Response to ME RtI classroom intervention resources for teachers.
