|
| Abstract: |
This session highlights progress, challenges, and lessons learned in states and districts that are using RTI as a response to over- and underidentification of minority students for special education and as a strategy to improve achievement among culturally and linguistically diverse students. Promising approaches for providing culturally responsive, evidence-based interventions across multiple tiers of need will be described and key components of RTI, including student screening and progress monitoring will be reviewed in the context of students of color.
