As a nation, we've come to accept a high percentage of kids not reading well. But we shouldn't. Science shows clearly how kids learn to read and how they should be taught. Why are so many schools not doing it? https://t.co/Qt9y45Xmbv #TellEWA Listen on @EducatePodcast

Universal pre-K and a well-rounded education including all types of literacy (read/write/comprehension, numeracy, digital and more) are fundamental rights of all children. We need for all levels of govt to believe this and fund this. Period. https://t.co/hOKVAr0eTk

June 2018: Judge rules there is no right to access to literacy
June 2019: Likely thousands of Michigan third-graders will be told they can't become fourth-graders b/c they're not proficient in reading, per state law.
