Dyslexia Notifications
Massachusetts General Law Chapter 71 Section 57A directs the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to issue guidelines that support district development of screening procedures for students demonstrating one or more potential signs of a neurological learning disability including, but not limited to, dyslexia. These Guidelines have been developed as a clear and practical set of organized, relevant, and research-based best practices for the early screening, instruction, and accommodation of students with reading difficulties, learning disabilities, and dyslexia. The Guidelines are intended to assist district administrators, all educators, regardless of their role, and families to make informed educational decisions that will result in supportive, effective practices and the best possible outcomes for students.
The Massachusetts Dyslexia Guidelines serve three purposes:
To provide a set of screening guidelines for all students, including students demonstrating one or more potential signs of a neurological learning disability including, but not limited to, dyslexia;
To provide a framework of intervention for students at risk of dyslexia and other learning difficulties that is timely and responsive; and
To provide a comprehensive resource of evidence-based practices aimed at all educators to support students at risk of dyslexia and those identified as having dyslexia, consistent with and linked to other guidance from DESE.
