What our customers in Ohio are saying
Spotlight Ohio: Structured literacy is a non-negotiable
After receiving training on the science of reading, educators at Fairless Elementary School in Ohio determined that the next step was to add structured literacy resources into their curriculum. And it was non-negotiable. Learn about their challenges, successes and best practices for Tiers 1 and 2, and what’s new on the horizon for Tier 3.
It’s not easy for teachers to hear, ‘We want you to change what you’re doing.’ The truth is that once we [looked] at everything the curriculum offered, I didn’t have to work very hard because the products are so great.

Spotlight Ohio: Tier 3 intervention in action
Fairless Local School District in Ohio started boldly with full district training in the science of reading in 2016. Today, they have implemented structured literacy in Tier 1 and Tier 2 across K-5, and they have strong, aligned Tier 3 instruction as well as a successful pilot for Tier 3 in Middle School. Students and teachers are thriving in an ecosystem of aligned tiers and shared routines.
It’s the consistency. It’s the ability for teachers to expand on their knowledge of the science of reading with the convenience and prep time saved by just being able to get into the program, and not be bound to such a tight script that they sound like a robot.
