Alabama Literacy Act
In 2019, the Alabama legislature passed the Alabama Literacy Act. The Alabama Literacy Act was established to improve the reading proficiency of public school kindergarten through 3rd-grade students and ensure that those students are able to read at or above grade level by the end of the 3rd grade. The law states that all 3rd-grade students shall demonstrate sufficient reading skills for promotion to 4th grade, beginning with the 2023-2024 school year.
