In a recent survey* more than 400 middle and high school educators shared their experiences using (or attempting to use) Multi-Tiered Systems of Supports (MTSS) within their schools. Their feedback highlighted the universal challenges and barriers that often prevent the successful implementation of MTSS at the secondary level.
In addition to concerns over student wellbeing, academic remediation, and teacher burnout, a widespread misconception was discovered: MTSS just works better at the elementary level. However, evidence suggests the opposite. Despite these real barriers, using an MTSS framework can not only benefit our middle and high school students, but educators as well. Join us for this edWebinar to learn:
- What MTSS looks like at the secondary level, including all the practical logistics such as how to create efficient schedules and embedded professional learning
- How a successful MTSS can help all students relearn important social and emotional skills, allowing students to become engaged in their own learning
- How catch-up growth can be achieved through systematic, tiered learning, starting with core instruction
- The steps needed to create effective data-sharing teams that support decision making
- Answers to common questions and misconceptions about implementing MTSS in a middle or high school setting
This edWebinar will be of interest to middle and high school teachers, school and district leaders, education technology leaders, and MTSS, RtI, and assessment coordinators. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
