Impact of Lexia Core5 Reading in California Schools

This school-level study describes the impact of Core5 on third grade student achievement in California between Core5 and non-Core5 schools. Results from 1,477 schools showed that schools with strong Core5 implementation had better school achievement on the third grade Smarter Balanced English Language Arts assessment than California schools that did not use Core5. Additionally, Core5 schools that had more third grade students meeting their Core5 usage targets were associated with higher third grade Smarter Balanced English Language Arts outcomes.
