The Keys to Early Reading Success:
How Districts Have Boosted Literacy Outcomes

WEBINAR ON DEMAND
Duration: 1 hour


National reading scores have reached historic lows despite the tireless efforts of school leaders and teachers. Do any reading interventions actually improve reading scores across demographics?

  • Why first grade is the pivotal year for reading — and how the right intervention produces lasting benefits
  • Why 1:1 virtual tutoring leads to huge gains in literacy outcomes — 5.4 months of additional learning, on average
  • Real-world results: how districts more than tripled the number of first graders meeting benchmark
