We are cautiously optimistic about Governor Hochul's announcement. This moment holds promise for the children of our home state if executed well, and we want it to be successful. We hope that New York State--as well as states across the country that are embarking on similar journeys toward evidence-aligned instruction--leverages the lessons TRL has learned to create significant outcomes for our students.

Key Points: 
  • As individuals, chance experiences led them to learn about the science of reading (SoR).
  • Our expertise has been sought by multiple state education agencies, national education organizations, and educator preparation programs.
  • We have long-term partnerships with over 70 school districts across the U.S. as they align practice and policy to the scientific evidence base on reading.
  • However, true transformation of statewide reading instruction will require more comprehensive learning than what is possible through a microcredential program.
