Abstract: Recent U.S. education policies require that public schools utilize evidence-based practices (EBP) for instruction and intervention. These requirements coincide with the development of multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS) as a practice that offers timely interventions for students not meeting grade-level goals. Within an MTSS, Tier 1 core instruction is provided for all students in the general education classroom and serves as the foundation of other supports. This study examined whether the Tier 1 core reading instruction in elementary schools met the standards for EBP included in the Every Student Succeeds Act. Results and implications for school leaders are discussed.
