K-3 reading checks and help for kids
Beginning July 1, 2025, schools must screen all K–3 students for reading problems at least three times a year. Districts must use state‑approved, evidence‑based curricula and a multi‑tier program that tracks progress and gives targeted help. If your child is flagged as high‑risk and not showing enough progress, the school must create an individualized reading plan any time from mid‑kindergarten through third grade. Group plans can happen only outside core reading time, and an Individualized Education Program (IEP) that already covers reading counts. After any screening that shows concerns, the school must send you the results and explain them as soon as possible.
District reading reports and school plans
Starting July 1, 2025, each district reports every year on third‑grade reading. The state goal is 85% of students reading on grade level by the end of third grade. Reports must include how many K–3 students show signs of reading difficulties, the programs and interventions used, progress on key skills, and third‑grade results on the statewide test. Any school below 85% must file an improvement plan with its district, and the district must submit an overall plan to the state. Plans must spell out the evidence‑based instruction, testing and interventions, teacher training, staffing ratios, and use of trained tutors and support staff for K–3.
