Case Study: Brunswick School Department achieves rapid identification of students needing RTI services with Tyler Technologies' Tyler Pulse

Tyler Pulse empowers quick identification of students in need of RTI services

Brunswick School Department, a public district in Brunswick, ME serving about 2,367 students, partnered with Tyler Technologies to tackle inefficient, manual student-tracking and identification for its Response to Intervention (RTI) program. The district needed to replace multiple spreadsheets across schools, automate the collection of standardized test scores, and provide secure, real-time, consistent information so administrators could quickly spot students who needed support.

By integrating Tyler Pulse with the district’s long‑standing Schoolmaster student information system, the team created color-coded dashboards and custom RTI reports that aggregate testing data and present it visually. The solution automated data gathering, enabled rapid identification of at‑risk students for proactive intervention, streamlined recordkeeping, and improved resource-allocation decisions—delivering faster, more consistent insights while protecting student data.
