    MTSS Framework

    NPS Literacy employs a Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) framework for literacy. MTSS is an instructional framework that includes universal screening of all students, multiple tiers of instruction and support services, and an integrated data collection and assessment system to inform decisions at each tier of instruction. 

    Intervention Supports

    Norfolk Public Schools uses various forms of assessment data, including standardized tests, formative assessments, and progress monitoring data to determine students in need of intervention. Analyzing this data allows teachers to identify students who are struggling to meet grade-level benchmarks. By examining patterns and trends in the data, educators can make informed decisions about which students require targeted interventions to address their specific academic needs and provide appropriate support to help them succeed. This support can come from the reading specialist, Title I teacher, trained tutors, special education case manager, computer program, or any combination of providers.
