What do students with dyslexia really need from schools? More than anything, they need strong systems that ensure early identification, targeted intervention, ongoing progress monitoring, and collaborative decision-making. This session will explore how students with dyslexia are supported along a continuum of services, beginning with high-quality general education systems and moving to more intensive supports when needed. Presenters will share how teams can move beyond silos, align interventions across that continuum, and engage in collaborative problem-solving. Participants will examine common misconceptions, the role of dyslexia screening and progress monitoring, and when a comprehensive evaluation for special education may be needed. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding that it is not the label, but the system of support, that drives student outcomes.
