The U.S. Department of Education awarded Ohio $60 million for the Comprehensive Literacy State Development grant. The goal of this program is to increase learning opportunities and improve literacy outcomes for students aligned to Ohio’s implementation of the Science of Reading. If changing to the Science of Reading approach has been difficult for your school/district or if you just need additional resources to further your current efforts to align instruction to the Science of Reading, this grant might be a great fit for you!
