19. Briefly summarize the need for ADSIS prevention services at
Zumbrota-Mazeppa Elementary School
Zumbrota Mazeppa School District has a need for ADSIS prevention
services because our data indicates that we have a gaps with our
students’ proficiency and with their being served for their needs. We
need to do better for all students based on the facts that:
4. Our students need more help in meeting reading and math
standards.
+ An average of 41% of our students in grades 3 through 10 did not
meet standards or partially met standards in Reading.
+ An average of 37% of our students in grades 3 through 11 did not
meet standards or partially met standards in Math.
2. We have a disconnect between our teachers' understanding of
Tier 1 instruction and interventions prior to referral for special
education services.ar62015

Problem-solving and response-to-intervention have both been found
in education since the 1950s (Reschley, 2008, p. 9). There exist a
variety of approaches to problem-solving, and each approach
provides a logical process (Tilly, 2008). Bransford and Stein (1984)
developed a five-step problem-solving process (as cited in Burns &
Gibbons, 2012, p. 7). The following are the five problem-solving
steps: identify the problem, define the problem, explore alternative
solutions to the problem, apply a solution, look at the effects of the
application. This process is combined with a model used to match a
continuum of student needs with supports (Tilly, 2008). It is
important that the problem-solving process occurs in an organized
manner within a school to effectively match supports to students
(Burns & Gibbons, 2012). Probes are taken over 7 weeks with a
minimum of 12 data points. Problem Solving Teams are in place to
monitor data.

following criteria as outlined in the Determining the Eligibility of
Students with Specific Learning Disabilities Manual.
A minimum of 12 data points are required from a consistent
intervention implemented over at least seven school weeks in
order to establish the rate of progress. Rate of progress is
inadequate when the child's:
4. Rate of improvement is minimal and continued intervention
will not likely result in reaching age or state-approved grade-
level standards;
2. Progress will likely not be maintained when instructional
supports are removed;
3. Level of performance in repeated assessments of
achievement falls below the child's age or state-approved grade-
level standards; and
4, Level of achievement is at or below the fifth percentile on one
or more valid and reliable achievement tests using either state
or national comparisons. Local comparison data that is valid
and reliable may be used in addition to either state or national
data. If local comparison data is used and differs from either
state or national data, the group must provide a rationale to
explain the difference.
47. Based on this information, please detail how you will meet
these criteria for exit from ADSIS to a more intensive
intervention:
The PST using standard treatment protocol process will monitor
intervention effectiveness by reviewing data, checking for fidelity of
intervention an pleeteny and analyzing rate of improvement and
sustainability of intervention.
