Lexia® Core5® South Dakota Progress Report
Proven literacy tools + real-time data = measurable growth
South Dakota educators are implementing statewide initiatives such as the Elevating Literacy Across South Dakota (ELA-SD) project, designed to improve literacy outcomes for pre-K through grade 12.
Across the state, supplemental and intervention programs grounded in the science of reading are proving effective in accelerating students’ development of literacy skills. Research-proven programs can help educators reach state literacy goals by providing actionable, real-time data to teachers, school administrators, and district administrators.
With embedded, AI-powered progress monitoring, Lexia® Core5® Reading gives teachers real-time insight into student growth—without adding to their workload. That means more effective differentiation, targeted support for every learner, and a personalized classroom experience that drives measurable reading gains. The result? Stronger teacher performance, higher retention, and better student outcomes across your school or district.
South Dakota student performance speaks for itself:
- 86% of students were at or above grade level by year’s end
- Students below grade level dropped from 65% to 14%
- 51% of South Dakota students achieved grade-level benchmarks
