Response to Intervention (RTI)

The reauthorized Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) was signed into law on Dec. 3, 2004, by President George W. Bush. The final regulations were published on August 14, 2006. The IDEA 2004 requires schools to provide systematic, measured, appropriate educational interventions to students to ensure that students have been provided appropriate instruction. Response to Intervention (RTI) is a well-integrated system of instruction/intervention guided by child outcome data.

RTI will require general education and special education to work together to design and implement effective delivery systems. This webpage includes resources and references that may help school districts to take steps toward improved responses to struggling learners.
