RTI or Response to Intervention is an approach to identifying
students at risk for learning disabilities which has been used
successfully in states and school districts nationwide.
The National Center for Learning Disabilities (NCLD) held a
teleconference on Response to Intervention (RTI) and they have
graciouosly posted the transcript online so that we can all learn
more about this new development.

I love RTI! A child doesn't have to be diagnosed with a disability to get an IEP and the help he needs. It means he doesn't need a label before he gets help. It cuts down on time between suspecting a disability and being able to do something about it, often preventing a serious slide that requires an IEP.
My school hired someone to implement an RTI program in our school and she told me at the end of the year, not one teacher was willing to work with her on it. She is gone and I haven't heard anything about it since. Its something we parents need to know is available and to push for it.
