BCPS is in the process of developing a Multi-Tiered System of Supports. This system is a framework to guide schools to provide a continuum of prevention and intervention services and supports.  Decisions regarding the needed services and supports should be made:

  • based on data,

  • using practices proven by research to be effective at achieving the identified goals (Evidence-based practices/EBPs),

  • in a manner that ensures equitable and culturally proficient outcomes, and

  • using a multi-disciplinary team process.

Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS)

The following components have been identified as essential to the BCPS MTSS:

  • Positive and Sustainable School Climate

  • Problem-Solving Process

  • Data Collection

  • Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 Interventions

  • Teaming

  • Training

  • Progress Monitoring

BCPS Employees: Trainings will be held for school teams. Contact us for more information

One tool available to support the MTSS process is the SHAPE System. This is a free, private, web-based portal that offers a virtual work space for student support teams to document, track, and advance their MTSS goals. The SHAPE System serves as a portal by which teams can access the census and performance measures, as well as obtain customized school level progress reports and useful resources to improve system quality: http://theshapesystem.com/
