SB1672 mandates screening for reading difficulties, including dyslexia, for students in grades K-3, and provides guidelines for intervention.
SB1672 requires the State Board of Education to include guidelines for universal screeners to identify students at risk of reading difficulties, including dyslexia. Schools must screen students in grades K-3 at least twice a year. If a screener indicates a risk, a secondary review is conducted to gather more information. The school must then provide intervention aligned with effective structured literacy instruction. The State Board must also develop a handbook for parents, guardians, and teachers on identifying dyslexia and improving academic performance.
