Student Intervention Team (SIT)

When IDEA was reauthorized in 2004 into the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act, (IDEA 2004), President Bush in essence required regular education to monitor and measure a student’s response to an individual intervention in the regular education classroom. During the 2007-2008 school year, four elementary schools in Georgetown County implemented Response to Intervention or RtI.

In Georgetown County, the School Intervention Team (SIT) will be a part of the RtI process, as the individual student’s progress is monitored and instructional decisions are made based on on-going data collection.
