Colorado READ Act
Colorado Reading to Ensure Academic Development Act
The Colorado READ Act is state legislation that sets guidelines to ensure that every student completes third grade reading at or above grade level. Throughout each year students are assessed on their reading performance. This helps to identify students needing extra targeted or intensive reading instruction to become competent and confident readers. The READ Act requires the creation and implementation of an instructional plan (called a READ Plan) for students grades K - 3 identified as having a significant reading deficiency. READ Plans continue with the student until grade level proficiency is reached.
