Department Announcements
CSAP/TCAP
 This past spring, students in Colorado took the CSAP (Colorado Student Assessment Program). Your student will be receiving their scores to bring home by September 9th. During the next two years, students will be taking a transitional assessment as Colorado moves toward implementing new state standards. The test students take will be called the TCAP. The Transitional Colorado Assessment Program (TCAP) is Colorado’s standards-based assessment designed to provide a picture of student performance to schools, districts, educators, parents and the community. In 2014, the goal is to have a new assessment system in place that addresses the new state standards. If you have questions or need more information, you can refer to the Colorado Department of Education’s website at www.cde.state.co.us or call the Department of Instructional Programs at (970) 686-8000.

What is RtI?
Colorado Definition of RtI

Response to Intervention is a framework that promotes a well-integrated system connecting general, compensatory, gifted, and special education in providing high quality, standards-based instruction and intervention that is matched to students' academic, social-emotional, and behavioral needs.

Colorado Department of Eduation Core Principles of RtI: 

  • ALL children can learn and achieve high standards as a result of effective teaching.
  • All students must have access to a rigorous, standards-based curriculum and researched-based instruction.
  • Intervening at the earliest indication of need is necessary for student success (Pre K-12).
  • A comprehensive system of tiered interventions is essential for addressing the full range of student needs.
  • Student results improve when ongoing academic and behavioral performance data inform instructional decisions.
  • Collaboration among educators, families and community members is the foundation for effective problem-solving and instructional decision making.
  • On-going and meaningful involvement of families increases student success.
  • All members of the school community must continue to gain knowledge and develop expertise in order to build capacity and sustainability of RtI.
  • Effective leadership at all levels is crucial for the implementation of RtI.

Six Components of RtI:

  1. Leadership
  2. Problem-Solving
  3. Curriculum/Instruction
  4. Assessment/Progress Monitoring
  5. Positive School Climate
  6. Family/Community
