In our effort to support schools and districts in implementing RTI², the department has dedicated staff members in each CORE office (CORE interventionists) and is continually responding to the most frequently asked questions received at RTI.Questions@tn.gov. CORE interventionists and feedback received through RTI.Questions@tn.gov help us identify school and district needs for resources and support.
Below you will find key planning tools and resources to assist you in reflecting on your current RTI2 implementation progress, focus in on the needs of a specific student group or grade level, and see models and examples of materials for your daily work. CORE interventionists have been trained to support all grade levels in utilizing the planning tools and resources and can be contacted to assist districts directly in their RTI2 implementation, evaluation, and improvement.
