RTI Scheduler

Practical utilities for intervention teams

RTI Scheduler is free, online software that helps schools plan and run schedules with less effort. Student programs can be highly customized and flexibly arranged to match your needs, freeing teachers to spend more time on learning needs that a traditional classroom alone cannot fully meet.

This site focuses on fast, printable workflows instead of a full student information system. Start with the RTI Scheduler: import a roster, drag students into Tier 2 / Tier 3 blocks, and hand a clean PDF to colleagues or post outside the room. Curious how schedules fit the school day? Read the RTI Schedule beginner guide.

On the roadmap

Additional calculators, timers, and printable templates can live here as separate tools under the same “no accounts, local-first” philosophy.

  • Session timer / rotation helper
  • Progress-monitoring checklist exports
  • Team meeting agenda templates

常见问题(FAQ)

Quick answers about the product, pricing model, data location, and how this tool fits next to your SIS — written for administrators and coaches evaluating RTI Scheduler.

What is RTI Scheduler in one sentence?
RTI Scheduler is a free, browser-based placement board that helps MTSS / RTI teams map students into Tier 2 groups, Tier 3 intensive blocks, or custom sessions — then print or save a PDF for meetings, classrooms, or families. No login is required.
Is RTI Scheduler free for schools and teams?
Yes. There is no paid tier or mandatory account in the tool as offered on this site. You use it from your browser; please still follow your district’s rules for storing student names on a device.
Where does roster and schedule information live?
Data is stored locally in your browser on the device you are using (local storage), not synced to our servers as part of normal tool use. See the Privacy page for analytics and clearing data.
How is this different from a full student information system (SIS)?
It is intentionally narrow: a fast, printable snapshot for intervention placements. It does not replace gradebooks, state reporting, case management, or official IEP systems — it helps you communicate who goes where during protected blocks.
Where can I learn what an RTI schedule means in plain language?
Read the beginner guide on RTI schedules: tiers (1–3), WIN time / intervention blocks, push-in models, and why students should not miss core instruction for pull-out help — see /rti-schedule-1 (also linked in the site navigation).

For step-by-step usage inside the board and troubleshooting, see the FAQ block on the RTI Scheduler tool page.

使用说明(Quick start)

Typical workflow from blank board to shared PDF — optimized for desktop browsers.

  1. Open the scheduler. Use RTI Scheduler on a laptop or desktop.
  2. Import or paste your roster. Upload a CSV or paste rows copied from Excel / Google Sheets; trim names until the list matches who you are placing today.
  3. Rename columns to match your building. Examples: two Tier 2 groups, one Tier 3 intensive column, enrichment, or “WIN” blocks — whatever matches your adopted schedule language.
  4. Drag cards into placements. Move each student from the pool into the correct column; rearrange freely until the team agrees.
  5. Print or export PDF. Use the preview area to print for a meeting folder or save a PDF to email or post outside a classroom — subject to your district sharing rules.

应用场景(Use cases)

Situations where a lightweight, printable placement board beats a heavyweight SIS screen.

  • MTSS / RTI team meetings: Project or pass around a clean PDF showing who is in each intervention group after a data review.
  • Counselors and coaches: Prototype rotations when the master bell schedule is still being negotiated — iterate without opening a full scheduling system ticket.
  • Building leadership: Publish a hallway-friendly snapshot of intervention groupings for subs and related service providers (with appropriate privacy review).
  • New staff onboarding: Pair a one-page board with the RTI schedule concept guide so terminology (Tier 1–3, WIN time) matches your master schedule.

示例(Examples)

Illustrative layouts only — rename columns and group sizes to match your real roster and policy.

Example A — Elementary WIN block

Columns: Tier 2 — Reading Group A, Tier 2 — Reading Group B, Tier 3 — Intensive, Enrichment / extension. The unassigned pool holds students still being screened or parent-placed until the team confirms placement.

Example B — Middle school literacy rotation

Columns: Core ELA (reporting elsewhere), Strategy small group, Newcomer language support, Independent fluency station. Useful when multiple adults share students during a long literacy block.

Example C — Draft for Wednesday PLC

Start from last week's CSV import, duplicate adjustments live during the PLC, export a PDF labeled with date and grade level for the intervention secretary — still local to the facilitator's laptop until you choose where to distribute it.
