Building Equitable Learning Environments with Multi-Tiered Support

‍

Resource Training & Solutions’ MnMTSS Team is dedicated to fostering effective, inclusive, and supportive educational environments across central Minnesota. As part of the statewide COMPASS initiative, our team collaborates closely with the Minnesota Department of Education to implement the Minnesota Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MnMTSS) framework, empowering schools with data-informed strategies and systems that support each student's academic, behavioral, and social-emotional success. Through professional coaching, continuous data analysis, and customized support, the MnMTSS Team works with educators and administrators to enhance instructional practices and develop sustainable, equity-driven improvement plans.

‍

By addressing historical inequities and helping schools implement evidence-based practices, our MnMTSS Team equips districts with the resources, technical assistance, and actionable insights they need to create positive, developmentally appropriate learning experiences. This partnership-driven approach ensures that each school can build robust support systems, improve outcomes for all students, and achieve lasting impact across all levels of learning.

Satisfying Minnesota competitive bidding requirements.

Vendors we provide are the result of either formal bids (identified as State Bid or SB) or negotiated contracts (identified as Preferred Vendors or PV).

‍

The contracted vendors we have known as State Bid or SB vendors are established through formal bids and purchasing from them satisfies Minnesota competitive bidding requirements - regardless of the amount of the purchase. The ability to do so is outlined in Minnesota Statutes123A.2 and 471.345.

‍

The combination of these two statutes gives members the ability to purchase from contracted vendors while remaining in compliance with the Minnesota competitive bidding requirements.
