Rapid Response: Response to Intervention (RtI) Policy

In 2007, a state department of education (SDE) served by the Southeast Comprehensive Center (SECC) requested information regarding state policies on RtI. SECC staff consulted the scholarly literature on education policy in the United States in order to provide a backdrop for discussion of state policies focused on RtI. Staff also reviewed the resources identified in the previous rapid response on this issue and conducted searches of SDE Web sites for revised or additional information regarding formal RtI policy. Refer to another updated rapid response, RtI Implementation and Monitoring (No. 000101), for state guidelines and guidance documents constituting nonregulatory guidance for school and districts.
