This website provides an introduction to Scientific Research-Based Interventions (SRBI) from both the national and local perspective. It explains the definition and purpose of this service delivery system and describes its prerequisites as well as the components and strategies that the Bethel Public Schools uses for each aspect of the SRBI process. This site will help to increase our common understanding of SRBI, describe our implementation plan, and support our collaborative use of this system. The overarching purpose of the Bethel Public Schools SRBI site is to ensure all staff understand and are able to effectively implement practices defined by Connecticut’s Framework for RTI (August 2008).
