The MTSS Institute: the Power of Us! could be your answer. ESC Region 10 (R10) is hosting a two day institute (September 25-26, 2019) to review the best practices of the MTSS Framework (Universal Screeners, Progress Monitoring, Evidence Based Interventions, and Data Making Decision Teams) and learn how to systemically develop implementation practices and procedures from the district level to the campus level to the classroom level. Mr. Steven Prater, (TEA Technical Assistance Manager) and Dr. Sarah Powell, (Network 5: Intervention Best Practices Lead) will be our keynote speakers for Day 1 and will be reviewing TEA's vision of supporting Academic, Behavior and SEL needs for all children.
It truly takes a team of people to create such a change; therefore, we are recommending a team of people attend the institute. The recommended team should be comprised of District Level Representative, Campus Administrator, Counselor, Interventionist, General Ed, EL Rep, 504 Rep, Gifted and Talented Rep, Dyslexia Rep, SLP Rep and Sped Rep. It takes collective responsibility to meet the needs of all students, whole child.
Day 1: Research Best Practices
Day 2: Implementation of District/School Wide Systems and Practices.
Both days provide participants the opportunity to access the Network/Implementation Room where Implementation Experts will be there to walk through any concerns or questions you have about your systems of support.
We are opening this event to every LEA and Charter School in the state as this opportunity provides a great place to network and build resources.
