NH RESPONDS Grant
NH RESPONDS: Professional Development for Excellence in Education is a professional development (pre-service and in-service) grant focused on development and implementation of an integrated Response to Intervention system of literacy and behavior support that includes secondary transition supports at the high school level, implemented with fidelity resulting in improved student outcomes.
6
NH RESPONDS Grant Goals
• Improve pre-service and in-service personnel preparation systems by designing, delivering and evaluating research based practices in Response to intervention (RtI) systems of behavior, literacy and secondary transition supports for students at risk for school failure. (in participating high schools).
• Improve the systems for recruiting, hiring, and retaining education and related service personnel who are highly qualified in these areas.
• Develop a statewide training and technical assistance network that a) aligns with federal and state standards and (b) builds the capacity of early childhood education programs and K-12 schools in the state to adopt, implement with fidelity, and sustain effective and efficient systems and practices in the above areas.
7
The primary strategies for accomplishing NH RESPONDS grant goals include:
• Demonstration Sites - comprehensive training and support in demonstration sites (K-12 schools and early childhood programs) in five SAUs.
• Pre-service - work with institutions of higher education and other key stakeholders to improve pre-service educator preparation programs in grant related areas; align with certification standards from NH DOE.
• Statewide Trainings – trainings offered yearly in grant areas to increase participants’ knowledge and skills. 8

What is RTI?
10
RTI…What Is It?Response to Intervention is the practice of…
(1) providing high quality instruction/ intervention matched to student needs while
(2) using learning rate over time and level of performance in order to
(3) make important educational decisions. Batsche, G., Elliott, J., Graden, J., Grimes, J., Kovaleski, J., Prasse, D., Schrag,J., & Tilly, D. (2005) Response to Intervention: Policy Considerations and Implementation. Alexandria, VA: National Association of State Directors of Special Education.
11
RTI Components
• Leadership teams– Representative, collaborative and influential
• Data based decision making – Universal screening–Monitor student progress
• Systematic tiered model of instruction – Continuum of supports based on student needs
• Provide evidence-based instruction and interventions all along the continuum of supports– Differentiated instruction
