A Multi-tiered System of Supports (MTSS), formerly referred to as Response to Intervention in the Philadelphia School District, is a systematic multi-tiered model. MTSS establishes a process for providing increasing levels of instructional time and intensity whereby the needs of all learners are identified, individually supported/supported early and effectively.

MTSS is based on the provision of high quality standards-based core instruction and the use of data to identify students for appropriate acceleration and intervention. MTSS implementation is everyone's responsibility and advances academic and behavioral achievement through frequent progress monitoring, ongoing data collection and analyses as well as providing immediate, evidence-based intervention for those who need it.

MTSS at Locke will be rolled out in phases and will operate in a cyclical manner

• Phase I Prepare

• Phase II Plan

• Phase III Teach

• Phase IV Reflect

• Phase V Adjust

The above phase mirrors the Teaching & Learning Cycle and will operate along side of it.
