Technology at OLMC supports the academic, and administrative needs of our school community including faculty, staff, students, and families. We recognize that our students live in a world that requires them to have transferable skills and are committed to providing tools that enrich the learning process, facilitate collaboration, and foster the skills necessary for success both inside and outside of OLMC. At the same time, we are dedicated to a balanced approach to technology that respects the child’s age and development.
We are further committed to meeting the instructional needs of all students. All teachers utilize the Response to Intervention Form to document concerns about students and to help provide intervention strategies for teachers to implement in the classroom.
WHAT IS RESPONSE TO INTERVENTION?
Response to intervention (RTI) is a process used by educators to help students who are struggling with a skill or lesson; every teacher will use interventions (a set of teaching procedures) with any student to help them succeed in the classroom—it’s not just for children with special needs or a learning disability. If a student is struggling, his or her teacher will use test scores and other measures of progress to choose a researched and proven intervention suited to help the child learn. If a child does not respond to the initial interventions, more focused interventions are used to help the child master the skill. RTI strategies address both learning and behavior.
