Abstract

Many Catholic schools face resource challenges that result in limitations surrounding the implementation of multi-tiered systems and support (MTSS). Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers a potential tool for Catholic schools to strengthen systems of support. This article explores how AI can strengthen core components of MTSS such as identifying evidence-based interventions, developing progress monitoring tools, analyzing student data, and facilitating personalized instruction. The article also outlines different AI tools available to schools and discusses potential benefits and challenges of leveraging AI within Catholic schools. Future researchers should consider evaluating and analyzing implementation of AI tools within MTSS, specifically how AI tools may support Catholic schools with resource limitations, time constraints, and expertise barriers.
