What is Multi Tiered Systems of Support - MTSS?

Multi Tiered Systems of Support, or MTSS, is the educational practice of identifying and addressing the academic and/or behavior needs of all students through a problem-solving process with three key elements:

High-quality instruction and research-based tiered interventions aligned with individual student need

Frequent monitoring of student progress to enable results-based academic and/or behavioral decisions

Use of student response data in making important educational decisions (intervention, curriculum, and instructional goals and methodologies

The primary focus of MTSS is early intervention to prevent long-term academic or behavior challenges. Struggling students are identified using universal screening and data-based progress monitoring and are provided intensive instruction. Please contact your student's campus for more information.
