CADCA - MTSS Research Partnership

This partnership with CADCA and ECRA brings districts together to develop a comprehensive K-12 MTSS student identification and supports framework, evaluate the impact of targeted and intensive interventions, and create practical guidance aligned to the new accountability system. ECRA provides the data analysis, research infrastructure, and ongoing coordination needed to help participating districts move this work forward with clarity and consistency.

What will participants receive?

Participating districts will engage in a structured partnership supported by ECRA through ongoing collaboration, research support, and shared learning opportunities. ECRA will be present at all CADCA meetings, manage progress through a standing agenda item, and host an annual meeting and social to support connection across districts.

Why participate in this partnership?

Districts that participate will contribute to a shared body of learning while gaining access to aggregate results across the partnership. This approach helps leaders better understand what is working, where supports are making a difference, and how MTSS practices can be strengthened over time.
