The Core Student Support Team receives the RTI Problem Solving Planning Sheet (the Core Team includes math and literacy coaches and administrator - other possibilities include guidance counselors or PBIS rep)
The Core Student Support Team reviews the RTI Problem Solving Planning Sheet and student history using the cumulative file. The team will record: Information about the student, minutes from the meeting, and recommendations.
Recommendations:
If the Student Support Team has recommendations for the teacher, then a member of the Core Team assists the teacher with additional Tier I classroom supports (could include coach support)
The Core Student Support Team identifies and places the student in an appropriate and available intervention.
If the support team does not have recommendations for the teacher, then a Student Support Team meeting is scheduled (includes the Core Team, referring teacher(s), and applicable social worker or counselor as needed)
