The Virginia Tiered System of Supports (VTSS) is a multi-tiered framework for working with students that uses evidence-based practices and progress monitoring to improve academic and behavioral outcomes.
An educational reform and systems change initiative designed and implemented to improve instruction for all students
VTSS represents an integration of Response to Intervention and Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports.
Indistar Indicators for School Indistar Indicators for School Improvement - Required Indicators:Improvement - Required Indicators: TA01 REQUIRED - The school uses an identification process for
all students at risk of failing or in need of targeted interventions. (2931)
TA02 REQUIRED - The school uses a tiered, differentiated intervention process to assign research- based interventions aligned with the individual needs of identified students (the process includes a description of how interventions are selected and assigned to students as well as the frequency and duration of interventions for Tier 2 and Tier 3 students). (2932)
TA03 REQUIRED - The school uses a monitoring process (including a multidisciplinary team that meets regularly to review student intervention outcome data and identifies “triggers” and next steps for unsuccessful interventions) for targeted intervention students to ensure fidelity and effectiveness.

VTSS - Identify, understand and clearly define needs
VTSS - Careful matching of needs to a continuum of effective evidence-based interventions
VTSS Progress Monitoring - informed decisions for increasing/fading supports to ensure that
students respond to interventions in a timely manner

Remember … Remember … PBIS is a data-driven decision making framework for establishing the social culture and behavioral supports needed for a school to be an effective learning environment for all students.

Integration of Academic Instruction and Student Behavior
What are the evidence-based instructional strategies that will attain the academic skill set?
What academic engagement behaviors will be necessary to translate the academic skill into academic performance?
What social/emotional behaviors are resources and obstacles to the skill and performance goals?
How will we match the instructional strategies with engagement factors?
