Brewster Faculty and Staff Discuss DoDEA’s Adoption of MTSS Framework During Early Release Day

On the recent Early Release Day, Brewster faculty and staff gathered to engage in a meaningful discussion about the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA)’s adoption of the Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) Framework. This framework is designed to address the needs of the whole child, emphasizing achievement, well-being, and resilience.
Understanding the MTSS Framework
The MTSS Framework is a comprehensive, data-driven approach that provides tiered support to students based on their individual needs. It integrates academic, behavioral, and social-emotional interventions to ensure that every student has the opportunity to succeed
Focus on the Whole Child
During the discussion, Brewster faculty and staff highlighted the importance of focusing on the whole child. The MTSS Framework is not solely about academic achievement; it also prioritizes students' social-emotional development and overall well-being. This holistic approach ensures that students are not only successful in their studies but also resilient and capable of managing their emotions and relationships effectively.
Moving Forward
The discussion concluded with a commitment to continue exploring and implementing the MTSS Framework at Brewster. By adopting the MTSS Framework, Brewster is taking a significant step towards ensuring that all students receive the comprehensive support they need to succeed academically, socially, and emotionally. This focus on the whole child aligns with DoDEA’s mission to provide high-quality education and support to military-connected students.
