Participants complete a “quality indicators” checklist for their school and brainstorm specific ideas and projects to promote the six components.

The above trainings have proven to be very effective statewide as schools and districts implement RtI for both academics and behavior moving to comprehensively address the learning needs of students and the professional development needs of staff. If you want to engage your staff in dynamic and focused conversations and action toward meeting the needs of diverse learners and reducing the barriers to student success we can assist you in your efforts. REACh has many resources designed to help educational communities like yours increase the use, variety, and quality of general education options at Tier I made available to all students and interventions at Tiers I and II for those students who need additional instruction and support.
