Who we are
Who is VTSS: The Virginia Tiered Systems of Supports (VTSS) is a collective of organizations funded and led by the Virginia Department of Education to support divisions with implementing and sustaining a multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS). The primary implementation partners include:
- VTSS-Research and Implementation Center (VTSS-RIC) at Virginia Commonwealth University
- VTSS Evaluation Team at Old Dominion University
- Regional Training and Technical Assistance (T/TAC) Partners
What is MTSS
MTSS is a systemic, data-driven approach that allows divisions and schools to provide evidence-based practices and interventions to meet the needs of their students. This is done through a clearly defined process that is implemented to fidelity by all stakeholders within the school and/or division.
VTSS Technical Assistance Vision: The vision of technical assistance provided by the VTSS is to build a sustainable MTSS through collaboration with divisions, schools, families, communities, and students that results in equitable and improved academic, behavioral, and social emotional outcomes for all.
