Schools; screening for dyslexia; requiring certain students to rescreen every three years; effective date; emergency.

HB 1761 requires Oklahoma public schools to screen all kindergarten through third-grade students for dyslexia if they are not meeting grade-level reading targets after the start-of-year assessment. Students identified with dyslexia characteristics must be rescreened every three years until age 18 or until a rescreening shows no dyslexia. School districts must report detailed data to the state education department annually, including screening numbers, rescreening results, and intervention programs. The bill mandates state-developed policies for screening tools, staff training, and parent notifications, effective July 2025.
