It\u2019s no accident that you can read and understand this sentence. A solid education empowered you<\/a> with this fundamental skill. Yet today there are literally\u00a0millions<\/i>\u00a0of kids in our nation who are behind in reading and, sadly, too many who can\u2019t read at all. Your child may be one of them.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The latest data provide the facts \u2014 and they\u2019re alarming. The\u00a0National Assessment of Education Progress\u00a0released its latest 4th\u00a0and 8th\u00a0grade reading scores for U.S. students and found that nearly\u00a070 percent\u00a0of these kids are testing “below proficient” in reading and are in real trouble.\u00a0That\u2019s not just appalling \u2013 it\u2019s heartbreaking, especially because most parents think their kids are doing fine. <\/p>\n

How did this happen? In a recent podcast series, “Sold a Story: How Teaching Kids to Read Went So Wrong,” journalist Emily Hanford shared stories of parents who discovered their children couldn\u2019t read and the many challenges they faced in seeking help. <\/p>\n

RHODE ISLAND OFFICIAL SHARES ‘EXTREME’ VIEW THAT USING THE WRONG PRONOUN IS AN ACT OF VIOLENCE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

One parent, Corrine Adams, realized her son in kindergarten was not being taught<\/a> to read when she helped him with his remote schooling during the pandemic. When she turned to Twitter to share her experience, Adams quickly found parents across the country had children who were not being taught how to read either. <\/p>\n

This nationwide failure is real, and it has the potential to rob our children and grandchildren of a chance to reach their full potential. To cite one example, economist Eric Hanushek\u00a0estimates\u00a0that students impacted by pandemic-related learning loss will earn 6-9% less income<\/a> throughout their life.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The path forward is effective policy. It\u2019s why I founded the Foundation for Excellence in Education 15 years ago. Our organization recently hosted over 1,200 attendees at its annual National Summit on Education in Salt Lake City. Attendees heard from both Hanford and Hanushek and many other speakers in policy-focused discussions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Central to our work is that every one of these solutions begins with what\u2019s best for students. It\u2019s why I strongly believe every child should have access to every educational option, similar to what was passed in neighboring Arizona with its Empowerment Scholarship Accounts program. <\/p>\n

But that\u2019s not all. In Utah, leaders have already made strides to enact commonsense policies. Senate President Stuart Adams is a champion for accountability that grades schools using letter grades \u2013 so schools are held accountable. Utah Sen. Ann Milner has championed some of the fundamentals of early literacy policy that include literacy coaches, screeners to promptly identify kids who are struggling, and early intervention, monitoring and supports for students until they\u2019re on grade with their peers. <\/p>\n

Yet in education, success is never final, reform is never complete. There\u2019s still more that can be done. It starts with ensuring all early literacy curriculum is aligned with phonics and the science of reading and disallowing failed policies. States would be wise to follow the leads of Arkansas and Louisiana that have banned curriculums containing “3-cueing.” As the podcast series I referenced earlier unveils, this failed method literally teaches young children to guess words rather than work on sounding out the letters and truly learning\u00a0how<\/i>\u00a0to read. <\/p>\n

I don\u2019t expect parents to know this \u2013 they shouldn\u2019t have to. But there is an industry that profits off this curriculum, despite overwhelming evidence it impairs a child\u2019s reading skills. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s time to put students first and put an end to what\u2019s not working for kids.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s too much at stake \u2013 we all must play a part to help every child rise. There are things parents, guardians, grandparents and any trusted adult in a child\u2019s life can do to help students recover lost learning. <\/p>\n

Invest just\u00a020 minutes of reading every day\u00a0with a child. And\u00a0research\u00a0has found an additional 30 minutes a week of extra math work have proven to help students make educational gains. <\/p>\n

As a national problem, it requires a national effort. It requires a national commitment to education excellence for every child. I know we have it in our capacity as Americans to help every child close these gaps and ensure every child can access their God-given potential for a meaningful life. <\/p>\n
