About Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS)
NC MTSS is a multi-tiered framework which employs a systems approach to problem-solving through data analysis (of student outcome and program implementation data) to improve outcomes for ALL students and to provide needed supports to classroom teachers.
Essential Elements of MTSS Implementation
There are four essential elements that set this MTSS model apart from other school improvement frameworks. They are the implementation of a tiered instruction/intervention model, screening, progress monitoring, and data-based decision making.
