These steps included MTSS focus group meetings, professional development planning, material delivery to teachers, and subsequent focus group and PLC meetings. Action steps, including MTSS focus group meetings, professional development planning, and material delivery to teachers, were designed, implemented, and evaluated in Cycle 2 to address the identified areas of need. Key outcomes included the validation and refinement of MTSS criteria, effective collaboration among stakeholders, and the identification of best practices for future initiatives. Findings included the validation and refinement of MTSS criteria, effective collaboration among stakeholders, and the identification of best practices.
