Team Functions
In order for the IIT to effectively meet the needs of
staff and students, each IIT has a variety of functions.
The most critical functions include the following:
Essential Functions
- Skill development for team members in problem
solving
- Skill development for staff who request
assistance
- Monitor school-wide data (e.g.,
disproportionality data of special education
referrals, office referrals, suspensions)
- Problem solving for individual and/or small
groups of students for academic, behavioral,
social-emotional, other concerns
Additional Functions
- Addressing attendance concerns
- 504 plans
- Substance Abuse Prevention (SAP)
- Health issues
- Crisis post-vention/follow-up
There are two approaches that schools may use to
support teachers who have student with academic,
instructional, and behavioral needs. Common to both
approaches is the existence of a single building-level
problem-solving team, called the Instructional
Intervention Team (IIT). Elementary schools may use IIT
with Case Management or with Kid Talk. Middle Schools
will commonly use IIT with Kid Talk.
