Customize to your MTSS

Aligned to Student Support

Every district’s MTSS looks different — but one thing is consistent:

Success depends on hearing from students directly and responding with the right support at the right time.

Closegap is built to strengthen your Tier 1 foundation, surface emerging Tier 2 needs, and integrate seamlessly into Tier 3 interventions. 

Here are some of the ways our partner schools are customizing Closegap to their MTSS:

Tier 1: Universal Supports

• Daily emotional check-ins for all students, giving every child a voice.
• District- and school-level dashboards to track overall well-being trends.
• Lessons, activities, and single-session interventions to proactively teach coping and resilience.
• Immediate data for teachers and counselors to foster safe, connected classrooms.

Tier 2: Targeted Supports

• Customizable alerts when students flag concerning emotions or patterns.
• Group-level data to identify clusters of students needing small-group support.
• Progress monitoring tools to measure impact of interventions over time.

Tier 3: Intensive Supports

• Individual student profiles that centralize data over time.
• Integration with counseling and student services workflows for quick handoffs.
• Real-time insights to guide referrals, care plans, and family engagement.
• Documentation to support compliance, case management, and wraparound services.
• Crisis alerts and urgent notifications that have prevented on average 23 reported student suicides each year. 

At Closegap, we view MTSS as a series of concentric circles, because students receiving Tier 2 or 3 supports still should receive Tier 1 instruction. We built Closegap for all students as a Tier 1 Universal Support, since every student deserves the opportunity to complete a mental health check-in.
