Strong Readers Act
The Strong Readers Act provides a foundation for student academic success.
Purpose
The Strong Readers Act ensures that reading proficiency is a key factor in grade promotion, while providing high-quality instruction, interventions based on student needs, and clear communication with families. It emphasizes a multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS) with the goal of all students reading at or above grade level by the end of third grade.
