Coaching is used to support MTSS implementation

Schedules provide adequate time for training and coaching

Schedules provide adequate time to administer assessments

Schedules provide adequate time for multiple tiers of instruction/interventions

Schedules provide adequate time for data-based problem-solving

Processes, procedures, and decision-rules are established for DBPS

Resources to support MTSS implementation are identified and allocated

Staff have consensus and engage in MTSS Implementation

Staff are provided data on MTSS fidelity and student outcomes

The infrastructure exists to support family and community engagement

Educators actively engage families in MTSS

This is occuring because it is necessary to continuously provide parents with MTSS/RtI information to increase the outcomes of school/home support. To address this element, we will continue to educate parents regarding the RtI/MTSS process to provide awareness and understanding of the process.

To address infrastructure, family suport and community engagement, we will provide parent and community education through various parent/community groups, meetings and events. For example, PTA, SAC, parent conferences/meetings and school events. 
 

Our plan is to utilize time during our parent meetings and community events to increase awareness of the RtI/MTSS process and specific supports at Westglades Middle School. In doing so, we will seek feedback from all stakholders to improve our processes and strengthen internal and external relationships. 

 

We will use the following to monitor our success: 

• Parent Surveys
• Weekly MTSS Agenda 
• BASIS Referrals
• Teacher Feedback

DBPS for student outcomes occurs across content areas, grade levels, and tiers

Across tiers, data used to identify "gap" between expected and current outcomes

Data are used to identify reasons why students are not meeting expectations

Plans based on verified reasons why students are not meeting expectations

Student progress specific to academic or behavior goals are monitored

Data are used to address performance across diverse group

Resources for implementation of MTSS are addressed through data-based problem-solving

 We are working towards getting the whole staff to enter in data into BASIS so we have student data readily availble when we meet at MTSS.

We are going to re-train the staff on how to enter data into BASIS on October 20th 2017.

We are going to have the staff split into small groups so BASIS training can be more personalized.  We are going to have the teachers do activities where they have to go into BASIS and enter data.  There will be follow up at their grade level meetings. 

We will monitor by checking in BASIS to see the if teachers are entering data.
