State Response to Intervention (RtI) Readiness Survey

Last week the Iowa Department of Education sent out a statewide Response to Intervention (RtI) survey. The Department asks that you please send a reminder to your elementary and district staff encouraging those educators to take the survey. Below is a message you may use.

You are asked to complete an important survey to determine our state’s readiness to support the new Response to Intervention (RtI) data system, assessments and early literacy supports.

Collaborating for Iowa’s Kids (C4K)—the partnership between the Iowa Department of Education, AEAs and local schools—is conducting this survey.

C4K’s initial priority focus, collective efforts and resources are on early literacy. All elementary schools, districts and AEAs are being asked to complete the survey for the scale up of RtI in Iowa as part of a statewide effort to improve early literacy results. This survey will help identify the first group of schools that will have free access to the RtI data system, assessments, training, support and coaching. The survey also will also help guide development of statewide, regional and local resources and supports.

If you haven’t done so already, please complete the survey by the end of the day today.
