Lexia Programs Receive STRONG Rating on Evidence for ESSA

Unprecedented K-12 Reading & Literacy Programs 

Unparalleled recognition by "Evidence for ESSA"

Evidence for ESSA lists Lexia programs as "Strong" for students in grades K-8. Evidence for ESSA is one of the leading resources educators consult to determine if educational programs adhere to federal efficacy evidence standards. Its criteria exceed what is outlined in the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) federal legislation. This rating reinforces the robustness of Lexia’s efficacy evidence portfolio, which includes over 20 peer-reviewed research studies and numerous validity reports and research briefs.

Very few edtech providers make programs that have earned Strong ratings at both the elementary and secondary level. Of those few that have met that high bar, the Evidence for ESSA analysis estimates that Lexia's programs have the largest impact on student reading outcomes, as measured by the average effect sizes. 

This rating reinforces the robustness of Lexia’s efficacy evidence portfolio, which includes over 20 peer-reviewed research studies and numerous validity reports and research briefs.
