Guaranteeing that all students demonstrate proficiency with essential academic standards, behavioral expectations and social-emotional competencies begins with effective supports at the universal level. To establish this foundation schools must:

2. Directly teach these skills to all students with attention to integrated and responsive instruction.

3. Provide all students with ongoing opportunities for practice and review.

The resources provided below will guide schools in achieving these three critical steps.
