This Week’s Survey Question

BACKGROUND 

  • Almost half of PA fourth graders are reading below grade level.
    • This challenge exists in both urban cities and rural communities.
  • One in five American adults struggle with reading basic sentences.
    • For these individuals, tasks such as reading the mail, completing tax forms, or even voting can be nearly impossible.
  • Research shows that early literacy is critical to academic success and long-term achievement.
  • A strong, evidence-based reading program beginning in kindergarten gives students the best chance at success.

Email Survey

  • Please note that if you do not provide a valid name, zip code, and email address, your response will not be tallied in the final results of the survey.
  • This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.
