MTSS is a framework that is designed to meet the needs of the whole child through an integrated multi-level prevention system. MTSS uses team-based leadership, and data-based decision making, to meet the academic and non-academic needs of all students. High quality core academic instruction and non academic practices are provided as universal supports to all children. Evidence-based intervention and supports are matched to student needs and informed by ongoing progress monitoring and additional assessments.
MTSS is a way to meet the learning needs of all students. It refers to evidenced-based, instructional strategies, interventions and other resources that are used to help all students achieve. MTSS is evidence-based, and uses problem solving to address both academic and behavioral instruction and interventions, (FL MTSS, 2011). When a school uses MTSS, all students are taught the same content, however some students receive additional help when needed. A school team reviews your child’s progress using data to determine how to support your child’s needs.
