Rundlett Middle School

• A Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) is a framework designed to address academic, behavioral, and social-emotional learning development of students within a fully integrated system of support. MTSS uses three-tiers of increasingly intensive interventions that are comprehensive in scope, preventative in design and developmental in nature.

Student wellness promotion for all (Tier 1) refers to all activities to foster positive social, emotional and behavioral skills and well-being of all students.  Supporting well-being and educational success for all students, Tier 1 is preventative and benefits all students. These activities might also include efforts to support positive school climate and staff well-being.  About 80-85% of students thrive when provided Tier 1 supports.

Social emotional and mental health early intervention, or Tier 2 services, support students who have been identified through a systematic, equitable process as experiencing mild distress, mildly impaired academic/social functioning or as at-risk for a given problem or concern. About 10-15% of students benefit from these services provided on a short-term basis, typically in small group settings.

• Short-term 1:1 Coaching and Counseling

Intensive social emotional and/or mental health support, or Tier 3 services help students experiencing significant distress and impaired academic/social functioning. These supports are individualized to specific student needs. Tier 3 support includes services provided by school-based mental health professionals employed by the school or community organizations.

 If you feel your child would benefit from Tier 2 or 3 services, please contact your student’s school counselor to share your concerns and learn about how to refer to such services.
