Tier I Interventions in Education

Tier I interventions are universally designed to offer differentiated instruction to all students, focusing on prevention and proactivity. Key components of these interventions include:

• Proactive, positive, and preventive actions

• Utilization of empirically validated procedures

• Collaboration with community supports

• Adherence to a common approach to discipline and climate

• Cultural responsiveness

• Awareness and accommodation of linguistic diversity to meet the needs of linguistically diverse students

Tier I practices in the social-emotional domain are thorough and align with state standards and student outcomes. These practices are culturally responsive and foster a positive and safe school environment. Tier I interventions encompass a range of strategies, including explicit school wide behavior expectations, the implementation of a differentiated social-emotional learning curriculum, and effective classroom management.
