This October, take part in Dyslexia Awareness Month by learning about schools making a difference.
If you were to step into a classroom, you would find that there are students in every classroom that don’t like to read. But, what if that wasn’t the case at all? A lot of time students don’t like to do something that they either find difficult or that they don’t know how to do. This is increasing true for students that are diagnosed with Dyslexia.
Dyslexia Awareness Month brings awareness to those with dyslexia.
October, National Dyslexia Awareness Month, is a good time to think about how best to serve dyslexic students. For Green, it’s part of his daily routine.

Key takeaways
- There are kids in every elementary classroom who don’t like to read. Yet, what if it isn’t that they don’t like to read but rather the obstacle of reading, dyslexia.
- According to the Dyslexia Center of Utah, as many as 80% of people with poor reading skills are dyslexic. The same portions of people of different genders, ethnicity and socioeconomic backgrounds have dyslexia, the most common language-based learning disability.
- And dyslexia isn’t just about reading. When students struggle to read because of a disability, there are consequences that follow.

Is your child struggling in school?
Get your free personalized learning roadmap
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.
