The school-based leadership team, with input from district leadership, makes decisions regarding frequency, tools, and personnel responsible for progress monitoring. The team determines who will monitor progress of students identified for Tier II instruction. Typically, the person(s) responsible for Tier II instruction completes progress monitoring, but other trained school personnel may provide progress monitoring support. Training in administration and interpretation of progress monitoring tools is essential.
