Maine’s Implementation Plan

Overarching Principles

Action Steps

In-Kind Financial Support

Overarching Principles

Systems must be integrated into other initiatives and adapted to the local context

The PD providers at the regional level have the skill, expertise, knowledge, and personal relationships necessary to build this capacity.

The DOE must facilitate this process by deliberately creating structures and processes to ensure integration of RTI into other major state initiatives.

In-kind Financial Support:

The following projects will provide embedded funding for this RTI Implementation Plan through the integration of the above strategies, tools, and measures: Maine Pathways/EPIC Standards-Based Education IDEA RTI grants MLTI ESEA/NCLB Funds Maine Title II Partnerships Student Assistance Teams
