SIMS

Three members of the elementary building RtI team attended a SIMS  (Student Intervention Monitoring System) training workshop at CESA this week.  This program will work hand in hand with the district-wide RtI process.  RtI in a nut shell is a process for achieving higher levels of academic and behavioral success for all students through:

High quality instructional practice
Continuous review of student progress
Collaboration

The SIMS program will provide teachers and other staff an easy to use record keeping tool, which will maintain information over time, and ultimately improve the success of students.  We are one of the first districts in the area to be trained, so the process has just begun.  Stay tuned for more information.
