Title 1 Students Read At or Above Grade Level in Months
As Title 1 teachers and administrators you know that
your students need to develop their reading skills to
succeed. Often Title
students who have struggled with reading do not get the
help they need for a variety of reasons: Teachers have not been trained to be reading teachers.
There is little or no information about the specific
reading skills the student has missed. If teachers know
what reading skills a student needs, they don’t have the
resources to provide the instruction. Plus, there are
few practical resources available to help content area
teachers integrate reading into their content. Now, the
breakthrough Keys to Reading Success™ Program can
help in all these areas. Whether or not your school has a
remedial reading program, Keys to Reading Success™
will provide every teacher with the tools and resources
they need to help all their students – even those who

out how Keys to Reading Success™ can help you.
