Transform Literacy Instruction: Bringing the Science of Reading to California

Across California, school and district leaders are turning to Lexia® LETRS® Professional Learning to drive real, sustainable change in literacy instruction. Designed to align with the science of reading, LETRS gives educators the knowledge, tools, and confidence to translate research into practice.

California educators featured in this flyer describe LETRS as more than professional development. They see it as a foundation for systemwide improvement. Leaders from Hemet, Cajon Valley, Pleasanton, Anaheim, and other districts explain how LETRS is helping their teams move from theory to action. For many, LETRS was the critical shift away from balanced literacy toward Structured Literacy that prioritized student outcomes.

Teachers and administrators alike point to LETRS as a resource that supports long-term growth. In one district it is used to guide principals, coaches, and teachers together. Another educator shares how the training would have changed her first years in the classroom by giving her the tools to reach struggling readers. The program's impact also extends to dual-language classrooms, with more than 90% of strategies easily transferable into Spanish.

LETRS builds shared language, deep understanding, and a lasting instructional foundation. For district leaders seeking to transform literacy from the ground up, California educators agree: LETRS is the shift that sticks.
