Third Grade Reading Guarantee Clause Samples
The Third Grade Reading Guarantee is a policy designed to ensure that students achieve a minimum level of reading proficiency by the end of third grade. Under this clause, students are regularly assessed for reading skills, and those who do not meet established benchmarks receive targeted interventions such as additional instruction or individualized reading plans. Its core function is to identify struggling readers early and provide the necessary support to help them succeed, thereby reducing the risk of students advancing through school without essential literacy skills.
