There's no time like the present to sign up for the Kentucky Reading Academies!
Through a partnership between the Kentucky Department of Education and Lexia, the Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling (LETRS) professional learning is being offered to all K-5 public school educators across the Commonwealth at no cost through the Kentucky Reading Academies. This course of study was chosen because of its demonstrated success on a national scale in bringing significant increases in literacy achievement.
Registration Information
Two different courses are being offered through the Kentucky Reading Academies – LETRS for Educators and LETRS for Administrators. Interested educators can join the Kentucky Reading Academies by registering for the course that pertains to their role.
Registration for the second LETRS cohort of the Kentucky Reading Academies will be open until Aug. 31, 2023.
Please NOTE: Phase 1 participants will not need to register for Phase 2, as they are already enrolled in the professional learning.
What Current Participants are Saying
More than 1,800 Kentucky educators and administrators are completing the LETRS professional learning in Phase 1. On a survey of Phase 1 participants, 433 responded, and 95% noted that the information they are learning through the LETRS professional learning is new information. A total of 95% of the respondents stated the learning is relevant to their role and 93% said the learning has helped them to better meet the diverse reading needs of their students.
