DYSREPORT: DON'T "DYS"OUR KIDSDYSLEXIA AND THE QUEST FOR GRADE-LEVEL READING PROFICIENCY
The Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation and Campaign for Grade-Level Reading present a comprehensive report and action plan for helping children with learning disabilities reach grade-level reading proficiency.
About 2.4 million children across the nation have been diagnosed with learning disabilities – but how successful is the U.S. education system in teaching these students to read? This new report provides a far-reaching overview of the history and progress in understanding and meeting the needs of children with dyslexia, as well as the persisting challenges that must be overcome, to ensure that all students can read proficiently by the third grade. Don’t Dys Our Kids also highlights best practices and examples of solutions that are already working in communities.
Based on interviews with nearly 30 experts, the report includes a collection of recommended actions for advancing this movement.
