In a large suburban Florida district, an education leader who served as the district's MTSS coordinator, ESOL specialist, and Title I coordinator needed a literacy solution that delivered differentiated instruction at scale. With Florida’s third grade retention law requiring strong intervention for students who were not reading at grade level, the district selected a program they could trust. Lexia® Core5® Reading is listed on the Florida Department of Education’s State Examined and Approved List for K–3 ELA Intervention Programs, providing both proven impact and compliance assurance.

Close Skill Gaps
“We were trying to remediate any skills our scholars were struggling [with and] any prerequisite skills they should have obtained in the prior school year.”
Instruction Through All Tiers
“We use [Core5] during our extra hour [of] reading time and during our small group reading block. We use it during that time so we can support targeted students.”
Embedded Assessment for Educators
“We use the data reports to monitor our scholars’ progress throughout the school year.”
Growth Across Grades
“Since the implementation, we have seen growth in grades K–5. Our teachers and support staff have also been taking ownership [of] their students’ progress.”
