The Council of Administrators of Special Education (CASE) and the National Association of State Directors of Special Education (NASDSE) have partnered to develop District and School Building Level RtI Blueprints which are now available.  The two Blueprints, Response to Intervention Blueprints for Implementation: District Level and Response to Intervention Blueprints for Implementation: School Building Level, provide step-by-step implementation guidelines, resources, and tips from RtI implementers with many years of experience.  The blueprints are designed to provide a framework around which RtI implementation can be built.  Go to the NASDSE website homepage at http://www.nasdse.org/ and look under What's New for details.  These blueprints can be downloaded for free and print copies are available for only $10 plus shipping costs.
