This Tier 2 training Pathway is designed for schools that have established foundational systems and are ready to strengthen efficiency, precision, and impact. Teams will refine intervention matching, strengthen data-based decision rules, and improve fidelity monitoring. The focus moves from building structures to sustaining and scaling high-quality Tier 2 practices and interventions.
Day 1: The Role of Universal Screening in Tiered Systems of Support Will guide participants with the benefits of universal screening for behavior and will explore example universal screeners and how one school successfully implemented them. Similar to data from academic screening tools, data from universal behavior screening tools can be used in tiered systems of support to (a) detect students for whom Tier 1 efforts may be insufficient, (b) inform teacher delivered, low intensity supports, and (c) connect students with evidenced-based Tier 2 (for some) and Tier 3 (for a few) strategies, practices, and programs. Day 2: CICO Adaptations Will explore how to adapt the Check-In Check-Out (CICO) intervention to better support diverse student needs. Participants will engage in a grounding activity to reflect on the importance of adaptation, followed by a discussion on why CICO modifications are necessary. Key adaptations covered will include: 1. Breaks are Better: A structured approach to integrating breaks for students who need self- regulation support. 2.Check, Connect, Expect: A relationship-based adaptation that strengthens student-teacher connections while maintaining accountability. By the end of this session, participants will have a clear understanding of how to implement these CICO adaptations effectively, ensuring that all students receive the support they need to succeed Day 3: Social Skills Groups Will equip educators, interventionists, and support staff with the tools and strategies needed to effectively implement small-group social skills instruction for students who require additional support beyond universal (Tier 1) interventions. Participants will learn: • The Foundations of Social Skills Instruction – Understanding the role of social skills groups within a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) and PBIS framework. • Identifying Students for Tier 2 Support – Using data-driven decision-making to determine which students will benefit from targeted social skills instruction. • Structuring and Facilitating Groups – Planning, managing group dynamics, and reinforcement strategies. • Data Collection & Progress Monitoring – Tools and techniques to track student progress and determine when students no longer require Tier 2 support or need further intervention.
