In efforts to improve reading outcomes for students across Alabama, the Alabama legislature passed the Alabama Literacy Act which became law on June 10, 2019.

This legislation extends comprehensive information and other guidance for educators to focus on concentrated and systematic efforts to improve the reading skills of all public school students in early literacy so that every student is reading at or above grade level by the end of the third grade.
