Recent data from various reading assessments, including NWEA MAP®, STAR®, aReading, AUTOreading, and WIST, show improvements in reading and language skills among students with dyslexia. These results were reported by schools participating in programs led by Dr. Tim Conway of NOW! Programs® and The Morris Center.
The assessments reflect atypical gains compared to expected progress, suggesting that targeted interventions may be effective in supporting students with dyslexia. The findings highlight the potential impact of specialized reading programs on student outcomes.
**Why this matters**
Reading proficiency is critical for academic success and lifelong learning. Students with dyslexia often face challenges in acquiring these skills, making progress difficult to achieve. Demonstrating measurable gains through recognized assessments provides evidence that tailored instructional approaches can improve reading abilities and support educational equity.
