MTSS

Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) Contact Darby Allen Coordinator of Literacy and MTSS Phone: (352) 486-5231 x2031 MTSS Parent Resources: Family Guide To MTSS Parent Guide MTSS Parent Guide MTSS - SPANISH Parent Information for Students Receiving Intensive Interventions Parent Information Intensive Interventions - SPANISH NWI Scholarship Flyer NWI Scholarship Flyer Spanish Understood.org Homepage What is MTSS? MTSS is a framework for organizing the various opportunities for supporting students in academics and/or behavior. Supports range from adjusting instruction to small group intervention. School-based teams use ongoing assessment of students to determine what support is needed and monitor the students’ progress to the intervention provided. Support is organized around three tiers. Tier 1 support is that which is available for all learners. Tier 2 are those interventions designed for some students. Tier 3 interventions are the most intensive supports that are required by the fewest students. The system is fluid and allows for students to be connected to the right level of support in whatever area is needed. Key Principles of MTSS Early intervention Instruction is matched to individual student's needs Frequent progress monitoring data are collected and reflected upon to ensure the effectiveness of instruction and interventions Evidence-based practices and interventions Parental involvement is encouraged Potential Benefits of MTSS Improved instruction and educational environment for all learners Provides support for students in need earlier Progress monitoring provides clear information Increased communication between parents and educators Questions a Parent/Guardian Can Ask The first point of contact for questions and concerns is always your child’s teacher. A phone call or parent conference is a great way to start the conversation about any difficulty that your child is experiencing. Is my child meeting academic and behavioral expectations? How do we know? If additional instruction or intervention is needed, what supports will be given to my child? How often will I be updated on my child’s progress? What can I do to support my child at home?

We begin serving Breakfast at 7:30 am and lunch at 11:20 a.... Welcome To Our Family Welcome to Whispering Winds Charter School. We are a small, (less than 150 students) publicly funded school of choice located in Chiefland, Florida. We are under the umbrella of the School Board of Levy County, Florida, but are independently run by our own Board of Directors. Levy County is a rural county that reaches from the Gulf of Mexico to the borders of Marion and Alachua County. We love the richness of where we live, whether enjoying the beautiful springs, the Suwannee River, the Gulf of Mexico or the beautiful woodlands and farmlands . . . Levy County has it all. Whispering Winds was founded in 1999 with the belief that smaller schools can provide a more personalized educational option for each child. We set high academic standards for all students, but also believe that your child is more than just a test score. Our goal is to provide a nurturing environment where your child can grow academically, socially and emotionally. We are publicly funded, but privately run. We are held to the same accountability as every other public school in the State of Florida, but we have a unique educational philosophy and our Board of Directors and School Advisory Committee are responsible for the philosophies, policies and procedures of Whispering Winds Charter School. We are very proud of our students and staff and believe that we provide an education option that focuses on high academic and social standards. We believe Whispering Winds is what every school can and should be. Affordable Website Design by
