Support for Every Tier: How Lexia Strengthens Literacy MTSS in California Schools

Recent legislation and initiatives in California prioritize strengthening students’ reading skills. Efforts like AB 1454 and the Golden State Literacy Plan call for schools to implement systems of support that focus on early identification, equitable access, and evidence-based instruction.

This guide details how school leaders can implement Lexia® programs as key elements in a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) that work together to meet California’s literacy expectations.

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

• Aligns with state literacy priorities

• Supports each MTSS tier

• Emphasizes equity and early identification

• Provides research-based instruction

• Supports all students, including those who are multilingual learners and those with dyslexia and other reading difficulties

• Offers progress data that supports decision-making and accountability measures

The guide also features a side-by-side look at how Lexia’s instructional programs meet the expectations of priorities in the Golden State Literacy Plan.
