The parents of millions of children who struggle to learn are searching 24/7 to help their children move forward in school. This guide to Response to Intervention is an easy-to-understand and critical tool for these parents.

Overview
Millions of school-age children experience difficulties with learning.
Their struggles in school may be due to factors such as cultural or language
differences, poor attendance or a lack of appropriate instruction. In some cases, a disability such as a learning disability can make learning difficult for a child.
The National Center for Learning Disabilities’ RTI Action Network has developed this guide for parents and schools involved in implementing response to intervention (RTI) in the elementary grades. As schools work to implement this new approach, some confusion may arise, so parents should feel free to ask questions and raise concerns along the way.
What's Inside
The Parent's Guide to RTI includes:
- Parent Perspectives – Real-world examples from parents who have experience with RTI.
- Glossary – Learn the important terms you'll need to know during the process.
