Communication with and involvement of all staff is important for implementation of MTSS not only to ensure fidelity to identified procedures but also to ensure sufficient buy-in and support for MTSS. This resource highlights three factors for communicating with staff: (a) a description of the school’s essential components of MTSS and data-based decision-making process shared with staff, (b) a system in place to keep staff informed, and (c) frequent collaboration of teacher teams.

This resource is part of the MTSS infrastructure and Support Mechanisms Series.
