Scoop from @Trish_Crain: Alabama schools held back 452 third graders at the end of the 2023-24 school year because of the accountability requirements of the Alabama Literacy Act. That's a lot less than critics of the law feared.

If we are not at 80% and are spending most of our data meetings talking about intervention, we’re talking about the wrong thing. -@drheidibc

“The question becomes how will those students [in between sufficient and on grade level] be flagged to receive the additional supports that we know they need,” literacy expert @kymyona_burk said. @ExcelinEd https://t.co/qUBXHRRh6B #aledchat

Hard to communicate with parents?

"We'll work on that," Mackey said, "it's hard to communicate with parents." #ALBOE

[Trisha Powell Crain @Trish_Crain]

It's worth noting that Dr. Mackey's slide still stated that 91% of students are reading "on grade level" - which isn't what the 91% figure represents. It represents "sufficiency," which is a lower bar than on grade level which is a lower bar than proficiency. #ALBOE
