I think that for so many, RtI is in its infancy.  We are just considering it
for this coming year.  The leadership towards this change is coming from our
exceptional education director. However, she is changing positions and will
retain that leadership role, so I believe this a personal leadership
situation.  Our Rti teams for initial review and consultation for tier one
interventions will consist of content related coach (math or literacy),
classroom teacher and a peer teacher along with a special education teacher
(operating in the idea capacity). I believe that it is unclear at this point
who will supervise the interventions, as we are literally in the design
stage and still talking about how this data will be gathered--the nature of
monitoring and probes.
