California Education Code requires schools to conduct early screening for reading difficulties and to identify students who may be eligible for special education and related services under a specific learning disability. This webinar provides educators with both legal clarity and practical tools to ensure compliance while supporting strong student outcomes.
The key topics covered will include:
- Legal requirements for reading difficulties risk screening and the steps schools must take when early indicators suggest risk.
- Legal and instructional framework provided by the California Dyslexia Guidelines.
- How to distinguish between screening for general education intervention and assessment for special education eligibility.
- How to leverage data to guide and adjust interventions to ensure they are effective and responsive to individual student needs.
By acting proactively, schools not only meet student needs but also reduce legal exposure and avoid delays in support. This workshop helps educators confidently act early — not wait — so students get the support they need before students fall behind. Join us in moving literacy forward with compliance and purpose.
