Strengthening Your MTSS: How Lexia Provides State-Aligned Support in Texas

Recent legislation and initiatives in Texas call for the use of a cohesive system of supports to strengthen all students’ literacy skills. Efforts like HB 3 and the Texas State Literacy Plan emphasize early identification, evidence-based instruction, and progress monitoring.

This guide details how school leaders can implement Lexia® programs as key elements in a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) that works in alignment with Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS).

The guide examines the importance of focusing on instructional programs and practices that are effective and focused on state literacy priorities—and eliminating those that aren’t. It illustrates how Lexia’s instructional tools are a good choice for literacy programming that:
