• The goal of Remedial Reading is to dramatically reduce the number of students who have extreme difficulty learning to read and write.  Remedial Reading is a highly effective short-term intervention of tutoring struggling readers in both an individualized and small group setting.  Remedial Reading teachers are highly trained professionals who work closely with students and design prescriptive and strategic instruction to address individual student needs.  Once students can meet grade-level expectations and demonstrate that they can continue to work independently in the classroom, they are released from Remedial Reading but are still monitored closely to ensure academic success.
