HB 3 requires all kindergarten through third-grade teachers and principals to being the Texas Reading Academies training before the 2022-2023 school year.
The academies are based on the Science of Teaching Reading, a term that describes educator application of evidence-based methods that best support development of skilled reading.
The Texas Reading Academies Blended Cohort Model is a 11-month online training program for teachers, principals and other instructional staff.
The ESC-2 serves as an authorized provider and will facilitate each blended cohort model, provide registration support and grade artifacts.
