Dyslexia
A minimum of 2 hours of PD is mandated for K-12 educators each year in the State of Missouri. Administrators and teachers are provided State guidance on the Dyslexia mandate, optimal screeners, characteristics of dyslexia, and evidence-based strategies to accommodate students with dyslexic characteristics. This training could be provided as a series, or a one-time session, and could be K-12, or segmented into diverse elementary and/or secondary.
