Team Leadership
Within an RtI model, district and school-based teams provide leadership in assessment coordination, instructional modifications and intervention selection/implementation, and data analysis and decision making at the district, school, grade, and individual student levels. Teams may provide guidance in the implementation of the entire RtI process or may focus on specific components (e.g., school wide data collection, problem solving at the individual student level). Examples of team activities include but are not limited to: (a) reviewing school-wide data, (b) examining the research base of current or future core and intervention programs used in the school, (c) attending and providing professional development that pertains to RtI, (d) collecting progress monitoring data on students receiving interventions, and (e) adjusting student interventions based on data. RtI leadership team members are chosen based on their role in the school and the knowledge and expertise they bring to the team. Participants may include parents, classroom teachers, special educators, content experts, school psychologists, and those with other specialized experience. An administrator is also included to facilitate school wide ownership and support of the RtI process and resource allocation. (NDE, [])
