An act relating to implementing the recommendations of the Advisory Council on Literacy

This bill directs the state of Vermont to implement recommendations from the Advisory Council on Literacy aimed at improving reading, writing, and communication skills for students. It specifically targets third-grade students who are not meeting English Language Arts proficiency standards and seeks to reduce achievement gaps affecting historically marginalized groups. The legislation requires the adoption of evidence-based methods for reading instruction, assessment, and remediation to support literacy development. The measure is currently under review by the Committee on Education and does not yet include specific funding or implementation timelines.
