Systemwide Response-to-Intervention in Clark County, Nevada

The Clark County School District (NV) has developed a systemwide best practices manual for Response-to-Intervention (RtI) to inform the work of regional teams who will each work with approximately 30 schools to support transition to a RtI approach to supporting needs-based interventions for students. RtI transition teams offer professional learning to general
and special education teachers within their regions, helping to ensure that a common language and common practices are developed and aligned across schools.
