Frequent progress monitoring of basic skills is one of the most powerful intervention tools in a school's toolbox. Frequent progress monitoring is also a cornerstone of Response to Intervention (RtI) and Multi-Tiered Systems of Supports (MTSS). Efficient and effective progress monitoring uses a single, simple and seamless data system where:

• the tests used for screening are the same as those used for frequent progress monitoring
• the same testing practices for progress monitoring at Tier 1 are the same as Tiers 2 and Tiers 3 and can form the basis, if necessary, for progress monitoring for special education IEPs and eligibility determination
