Multi Level Systems of Support

Definition of eMLSS

The Multi-Level Systems of Support (MLSS) that is comprised of Response to Intervention (RtI) and Positive Behavior Intervention Supports (PBIS) has three tiers that build upon one another. Each tier provides more intensive levels of support.

  • Universal (Tier I) Intervention- The school provides all students with access to high quality curriculum, instruction, and behavior supports in the general education classroom.

  • Selected (Tier II) Intervention- The school provides interventions to small groups of students who need more support than they are receiving through Tier I. Tier II interventions are typically conducted by the classroom teacher and are within the regular education classroom environment.

  • Intensive (Tier III) Intervention- The school develops and implements interventions to meet individual needs of students. When students do not demonstrate sufficient success with Tier II interventions, they may be intensified (such as occurring more frequently or in a smaller group) at the Tier III level. Tier III interventions are typically pull-out services, conducted by either by a teacher other than the classroom teacher, such as an interventionist or a special education teacher.
