2222. Resource, GDOE, Dyslexia Informational Handbook, Guidance for Local School Systems (Nov. 2019)

This was copied directly from the handbook: " This Handbook describes what dyslexia is and what it looks and sounds like when a child is experiencing difficulties in learning to read. It addresses how to screen for dyslexia and how to systematically improve reading skills instruction, while ensuring each and every child has access to individualized supports if the system is not meeting their needs. The Georgia Department of Education’s primary function is serving students; therefore, we are dedicated to providing the services and supports educators need to serve students. This Handbook is just one support. We will continue to modify the Handbook as we learn more, as schools improve processes for system-wide foundational literacy instruction, and as additional research emerges."
