"Read At Home" Plan Guidance Now Available!
Per the Read to Succeed Act (Senate Bill 9), beginning in the 2023-2024 school year, if a student's rate of progress toward proficiency in reading needs accelerated interventions as demonstrated by the results of an approved universal screener and reading diagnostic assessment, the local school district shall provide the families of such identified kindergarten through grade 3 students with a "Read At Home" plan (KRS 158.305).
To help districts effectively implement “Read at Home” plans in collaboration with families, the Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) has partnered with the Kentucky Collaborative for Families and Schools to develop guidance for ensuring high-impact, research-based family engagement best practices for relationship building and two-way communications. This guidance can be found in the Read At Home Plan Guidance document.
More guidance about read at home supports and parent resources will be published this spring.
For more information, please contact Christie Biggerstaff, KDE's director of early literacy.
