SEL Multi-Tiered System of Supports

(MTSS) Implementation

20

Tier SSIS SEL Edition Applications

Tier 1 At the Tier 1 level, the SSIS SEL

Screening/Progress Monitoring Scales can be

used with all students to establish a baseline

level of social–emotional functioning and to

identify strengths and improvement areas for

groups of students

Tier 2&3 At the Tier 2 and Tier 3 levels, the SSIS SEL

Teacher, Parent, and/or Student Forms can be

used to identify students in need of additional

SEL supports. Strategies for developing these

additional skills are provided in the CIP


Non-Academic Indicator

Requirement for ESSA

21

The Non-Academic Indicator: CASEL is promoting the

use of student social emotional learning as a measure

to compare school performance.

The SSIS SEL Edition Screening/Progress Monitoring

Scales is ideally suited for such an application:

• A teacher can rate an entire classroom of students in

less than 45 minutes,

• The rating forms can be used to benchmark

performance and to monitor changes in performance

over the course of the school year, and

• The SSIS SEL Teacher, Parent, and Student Forms,

which offer norm-referenced scores also can be used

for purposes of ESSA accountability.

Administration Instructions for

Teachers or Other Education

Professionals 1. Obtain 3 to 4 weeks of classroom experience with students before completing

this instrument to ensure a representative and reliable sampling of the students’

behavior.

2. Plan to take approximately 30 to 45 minutes to evaluate students (e.g., a class of

up to 25 students) on all of the social-emotional and academically related scales.

Although completion of all scales is recommended, it is acceptable to complete a

subset of scales when an intervention program focuses only on the subset of

skills.

3. Complete the evaluations for all students in one skill area before moving to the

next skill area.

4. For each skill area, read the definition and the performance level descriptions.

Then, select a performance level that best describes the current level of

functioning of each student in your classroom. Keep in mind that a student can be

at different performance levels across the eight skill areas. And, note that there is

no need to have equal numbers of students across the five performance levels

for a given skill area.


SSIS-SEL Screening/Progress

Monitoring Scales: Rating Scale The Screening/Progress Monitoring tool employs a progressive 5 point

performance rubric which is used for each of the 5 SEL and 3 Academic

competencies. Levels 3 thru 5 represent degrees of proficiency, with level 2

as an emerging or at-risk skill level and at level 1 is the skill is limited.

30

Level Description

5 The student has mastered the skill and does not

require additional instruction

4 The student performs the skill consistently, but is likely

to benefit from additional instruction

3 The student performs the skill proficiently though

inconsistently and would benefit from additional

instruction

2 The student is limited in their performance

of the skill and needs additional instruction

1 The student rarely can perform the skill and needs

intensive instruction
