Continuing our series highlighting “Voices from the Field,” we chatted with another superb educator, Trisha Senne, from Elk Grove Village, Illinois.

Trisha started her career as a special education teacher, then transitioned to be a behavior and learning consultant for the district before landing her current role as the coordinator of assessment & MTSS in the Community Consolidated School District 59. In this episode, we talk about how data collection can impact how a school helps students feel like they belong and how schools and communities can be transformed when there is a solid system or framework in place.

Quotes:

“The new “Aha” was really seeing how beyond intervention MTSS is, and how impactful your preventative and proactive approaches at your core really need to be.”

“MTSS is the impact that we have as a system, all the things that we do on a day to day basis, on behalf of students, of course, the assessment, intervention, but its also having a reliable core approach, relationships with families, its communication, all the things that happen from the littlest thing all the way to the biggest.”
