RTI and SPED

JMC Special Education teacher K-12 specialization LD

I was wondering if anyone's had a lot of success with the RTI model and tracking methods within their school, or school system? I am intersted to hear what everyone has to contribute, as I have heard great things, and terrible outcomes of the RTI process.

I think RTI is great in theory, but, as everyone else has been saying, it is a long process. When I taught third grade, my teammate had a student who was going through the process. Her parents felt that she needed ESE services immediately, but because she wasn't that far along in the process, she didn't qualify for ESE until the following year.
