RtI and the School Library
Elaine E. Buch, PhD, Director ATHS LMC
Kathleen Smead, MEd, Head of Learning Support Center and the ATHS RtI Team
     "Is RtI something new for school librarians or is it just another way of thinking about what we already do?  Fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary are skills required for students to be successful learners.  We know this is true for all students, especially those that may be under served.  Does the instruction, selection, and communication we offer deliver what is needed to support both the staff and students?"
