Efforts are currently underway in Indiana to train elementary teachers how to spot the problem of dyslexia early on. Currently, there are no training requirements in regards to recognizing the signs of dyslexia, a fast growing problem in Indiana. Initially, any training requirements would apply to new elementary teachers only.
Key takeaways
- 1 in 5 children in Indiana have dyslexia.
- The House Education Committee is moving forward with the passing of House Bill 1108 which will require training of elementary teachers to spot dyslexia among their students so they could provide the help needed.
- But one big obstacle in the passing of the bill is that it will require for the State to pay for the training of teachers.

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
