NDMTSS - Building an Early Warning System to Guide Responses at Every Tier (2026-2027) [Multi-Day Series] [Flyer]
Tuesday, December 1, 2026 8:30 AM - Wednesday, December 2, 2026 3:30 PM (CST)
Description
REGISTRATION: This professional learning series requires completion of an MOU signed by the building administrator on or prior to November 20th. When clicking "Register" you'll be directed to the flyer with the link to the MOU for completion.
DESCRIPTION:
Building an Early Warning System (EWS) around attendance, behavior, and course performance helps develop targeted responses at the district, building, grade-level/department, classroom, small group, or individual levels. While this is not a training course specific to Infinite Campus, it is about maximizing the data within it for MTSS decision-making. EWS is a continuous improvement process that starts with the health of universal systems and directs resources to the most efficient and effective response level.
After the training, you'll be able to:
- Interpret attendance, behavior, and course-performance data pulled from Infinite Campus to establish a consistent Early Warning System (EWS) data-review process
- Assess system health before student-level risk by examining whether universal supports are sufficient
- Disaggregate and analyze EWS data to identify meaningful patterns
- Determine the appropriate level of response by matching the scope of the intervention to the scope of the identified need
- Develop an action plan for ongoing data use
DELIVERY: This professional learning series will be delivered over 3 full-day sessions and 2 online coaching calls.

- Shannon Harken, Harken Consulting
