New Resource: KyMTSS Intervention Inventory
An important part of strengthening an effective Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) is maintaining a clear, organized inventory of the academic and behavioral interventions in place across the school and district. To support this effort, the new KyMTSS Intervention Inventory is now available. This tool provides a systematic way to compile, analyze and plan for all interventions of the tiered delivery system.
This inventory includes customizable Excel templates and guiding questions for reading, mathematics and social-behavioral domains. The inventory serves as a planning resource to help MTSS teams make strategic decisions to maximize learning for all students.
Utilize the KyMTSS Intervention Inventory to:
- Identify intervention for Tiers 1, 2 and 3;
- Determine if interventions are evidence-based, aligned with student needs and implemented with fidelity;
- Guide professional learning and resource allocation; and
- Inform data-based conversations during intervention planning meetings.
Key Resources to Support MTSS Implementation
The KyMTSS District Self-Assessment Tool, aligned with the KyMTSS six essential elements, promotes system-level reflection and guides teams in identifying strengths, gaps and priorities for next steps.
The KyMTSS Implementation Guide (2nd Edition) is a comprehensive roadmap for developing and sustaining a proactive MTSS framework. It details the essential components of a comprehensive K-12 MTSS framework, offering implementation strategies, tools, resources and reflection questions.
