Response to Intervention (RTI) is a process schools can and should use to help students who are struggling with academics or behavior. Even though RTI is primarily linked to special education and the early identification of learning problems, RTI is not just for students in special education. RTI is for all students and is based on the premise that a student might be struggling due to instruction or curriculum—either in the past or in the current classroom. Every teacher will have students who are struggling; and whether it’s short-term or long-term, RTI is a valuable tool.
