In 2019, the Georgia legislature passed Senate Bill 48 (Georgia Code §20-2-159.6 or S.B. 48), which included a mandate for all districts across the state to screen students for characteristics of dyslexia beginning in 2024-25. To prepare for this mandate, it also directed the Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE) to initiate a three-year pilot program involving rural, urban, and suburban school districts to screen students for reading difficulties and provide intervention. Seven districts were accepted to participate in the pilot, with planning beginning in 2019-20. The GaDOE hoped to use the Georgia Dyslexia Pilot to understand how to support districts in implementing the legislative requirements to screen for and intervene with early reading problems, including dyslexia, and ultimately to improve reading achievement across the state.
