Proven Results
Proven to engage students and increase
In the 2012-2013 school year over
140 students grade 6-8 in four states
(Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee,
and Texas) implemented
SRA FLEX
Literacy
™
with students two or more
years below grade level with 86%
receiving free and reduced lunch
and 54% having special needs.
SRA FLEX Literacy
™
is associated
with gains in basic reading skills
for students considered at-risk
in reading.
Results
Student and teacher perceptions
of the program were positive:
students report that is “fun” and
“cool”, and teachers used such
words as “challenging”, “flexible”,
“engaging”, and “intense” in
describing the program.
FLEX Literacy is the first
programwe have in our
elementary school that
allows us to track Lexiles .
. . And, it’s the only
program that allows us
to track student progress
toward mastery of the
standards.
