This document outlines a tiered model of academic intervention. Tier 1 involves standards-based classroom learning for all students. Tier 2 provides targeted instruction and interventions for some students in addition to Tier 1. Tier 3 includes specially designed learning with accommodations and modifications for a small number of students through IEPs or other plans. The tiers increase in intensity of intervention and decrease in number of students involved from Tier 1 to Tier 3.
