This report includes findings from the CA MTSS Phase 2A Pilot Project’s Year 2 of participation qualitative data collection and analysis. This pilot project follows 14 schools from 7 districts across California as they implement the California Multi-tiered System of Support (CA MTSS) framework at the school level with a focus on school climate, positive behavioral supports, and social-emotional learning. The purpose is to shed light on California Multi-Tiered System of Support (CA MTSS) implementation processes, successes, and challenges from the schools participating in the pilot. This report builds on the Baseline Data Summary, in which we presented data from Year 1 of participation, the 2019-20 school year. Learn more on the CTS website.
