Superintendent Dr. Stefan Bean closed the 2025 #CAMTSS PLI with a clear challenge.
What is one idea you can act on & one student who needs you to try one more time?
#MTSS is not just about what we build.
It is about who we become.
At the 2025 #CAMTSS PLI, Tina Keene shared that #MTSS is not about choosing between social emotional wellbeing, behavior supports, or academics.
They work together so learners can thrive.
Success is not chance.
Success is intention.
#IntentionalSuccess#StudentSuccess
At the 2025 #CAMTSS PLI, Tina Keene shared how joining phase one of California #MTSS transformed a school once seen as unsafe and chaotic.
She calls it intentional success.
Designing for confidence, security, happiness, and coolness.
At 2025 #CAMTSS PLI, Betty Garcia shared how community partnerships changed learning for families.
Little libraries, onsite tutoring, translated events, & STEM nights at apartments created access and belonging.
When families engage, students thrive.
#MTSS
At 2025 #CAMTSS PLI, Betty Garcia described being the parent who felt unheard and was ready to pull her son from school.
A principal asked her one question that changed everything.
Partnering instead of leaving led to real understanding and stronger relationships.

At 2025 #CAMTSS PLI, Marci Zeppegno shared how MTSS changes learning communities.
It replaces isolation with collaboration and shifts the question from what is wrong with a child to what happened and how we can help.
The quiet, human acts matter most.
This is #MTSS in action.
At the 2025 #CAMTSS PLI, Marci Zeppegno shared how a color coded flip chart turned a minor reminder into public shame.
She shifted to PBIS, the five to one ratio, UDL, and restorative practices that build community and belonging.
Belonging is a condition for learning.

This is #MTSS in action.
At the 2025 #CAMTSS PLI, Sal Arias shared how his team set a goal to cut suspensions by 10%.
Suspensions dropped 11.6%.
Enrollment increased.
Fights dropped.
Academics, attendance, and partnerships improved.
From hopeless to hopeful.
That’s #MTSS.
Superintendent Dr. Stefan Bean shared how, after major spinal surgery in 5th grade, his teachers adapted, partnered with his family, and checked in on him.
It wasn’t called #MTSS then, but it was MTSS in action.
Support for the whole child creates lasting impact.
@OCDeptofEd
When MTSS is done right, it transforms lives.
Superintendent Dr. Stefan Bean shared how young men in juvenile hall created the Tango-Ling, a business featured in our store at the 2025 #CAMTSS PLI.
Identity. Dignity. Purpose.
This is MTSS at its best.
