WHAT IS RTI
Response To Intervention (RTI) was formed as a result of 2004’s Reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) mandate, that required school districts nationwide to reduce the number of special education placements.
RTI was designed to help solve the issue of the overrepresentation of minority students under the classification of Mild Mental Retardation and/or Behaviorally Emotionally Handicapped.
Based on the successful medical model of public health the RTI Model has three Tiers of Intervention ranging from less intensive (Tier I) to most intensive (Tier III).
