Purpose:  This two-day training is designed to assist district and school teams in implementing system wide screening and progress monitoring to improve student outcomes - the keystone of a balanced assessment/response to intervention system.  Participants will acquire knowledge and skills in the following areas:

  • Relationship between response to intervention (RtI) and progress monitoring
  • Necessary components of a progress monitoring system
  • The degree to which components currently exist within the school community
  • Benefits of progress monitoring
  • Design and implementation of progress monitoring procedures
  • Available resources

Teams will generate a plan of action that will support implementation of a progress monitoring system at their local site. 

Presenters:  Elizabeth Dohrn and Judy Conlin are REACh endorsed trainers.

Prerequisites:  None. This training is open to anyone who is interested in learning about progress monitoring as part of their balanced assessment/response to intervention system.

Audience:  Participants are encouraged to come as a school team including, at minimum, a building principal, special education teacher, general education teacher, and a parent/family member.  A pupil services staff member is highly recommended.  Participation is most helpful when a leadership team participates for the duration of the training.
