New report by CCSSO and PSA aims to improve national student reading performance

PSA worked with CCSSO to develop a reading resource intended to help improve national student reading performance. The resource builds on a discussion with state chiefs, reading experts, policy experts, and other stakeholder groups at the CCSSO’s 2020 Literacy Summit (CCSSO Hosts Literacy Summit | CCSSO). Specifically, the resource describes four actions state leaders can take to set the conditions for key stakeholders—including educator preparation programs, regional educational services agencies, school districts, and schools—to align curricula and instruction to evidence-based reading practices.
