Strong teams are the engine of effective Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS). This interactive session introduces the Team-Initiated Problem Solving (TIPS) framework to help school staff structure efficient, data-driven meetings that lead to better outcomes for students. Whether you’re part of a PBIS, MTSS, or other problem-solving team—or preparing to launch one—this session will provide practical tools, clear strategies, and collaborative opportunities to improve your team’s function. Participants will explore how TIPS supports equity and system alignment, walk through real data scenarios, and leave with a personalized action plan to strengthen teaming practices back at their school. Attendees will walk away with resources they can use immediately, even if attending solo.
