  Case: No Time for RTI
My schools' master schedule is tight and there is no other time to perform interventions or probe students other than lunch. However, I need that time to relax my mind for a moment and eat. We are asked not to pull students from Specials. What should I do to be sure I am performing my RTI duties appropriately without missing lunch?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I've noticed this issue at many schools, and it makes me quite sad and distressed as well. RTI duties are significantly important for students, yet their seems to be little to no time to complete all or any of them. I would suggest assigning certain students for certain days of the week, or whenever it occurs you need to perform them, either during a small time in class when you can or during lunch (not everyday, but certain days). This allows for you to get through them as efficiently as possible. If unable to even do this, I would suggest setting up a way to meet students before or after classes, maybe have students have their parents fill out availability time sheets to shwo when it is okay to have a child for extra time outside of classes.
