Early Warning Systems for Screening, Problem-Solving, and Systems-Change within an MTSS Framework

MTSS requires easily obtainable, valid, and reliable data processed through a problem-solving methodology to make efficient and effective decisions across all tiers. This session describes how to use an Early Warning System (EWS) within the context of High School MTSS. By the end of the session, participants will understand the rationale for measures, benchmark thresholds, and problem-solving structures and will have an opportunity to use EWS data to problem-solve from the perspective of a school team. In addition, participants will learn what the literature indicates is best practice and what our own experience indicates are avoidable implementation errors.

  • Participants will be able to articulate the rationale for using EWS in a multi-tiered system of supports in high school.
  • Participants will use a structured problem-solving method (problem identification, problem analysis, planning, and assessing results) to make decisions from case studies involving EWS data.
  • Participants will become aware of best practices and common pitfalls in implementing EWS at a high school or middle school.
