Directs Commissioner of Education to establish three-year pilot program to increase reading levels of certain students; appropriates $1 million.

This bill establishes a three-year pilot program to improve reading skills for students not meeting grade-level expectations by the end of second grade. It directs the Commissioner of Education to provide summer school reading instruction in selected school districts, requiring districts to apply with specific enrollment and past summer school data. The program appropriates $1 million from the General Fund to fund the initiative, with the Commissioner selecting two districts per region (northern, central, southern) to ensure urban, suburban, and rural representation. At the program's conclusion, the Commissioner must report on its effectiveness and recommend whether to expand it statewide.
