Fidelity+of+Instruction

**Fidelity of Instruction**
Scientifically-based instruction and intervention at all levels of intensity (Tiers 1, 2, and 3) within an RtI model is delivered with fidelity (as intended by the program developers). To support high quality instruction and prevent drift in the intervention plan, an adherence plan is developed for core instruction, supplemental programs, and interventions. The RtI leadership team, including teachers, participates in the development of this plan, and the plan is not used for teacher evaluation. As part of the adherence plan, an impartial professional who is familiar with the instruction and intervention programs regularly observes instruction and intervention delivery using fidelity checklists and adherence protocols and provides feedback to the interventionists. Adherence checks are made more frequently as the intensity of interventions increases.
