How lonely and frustrated does a child feel when they read and write differently than their other classmates because of their dyslexia? Even worse — how terrible would they feel about all this when they don’t even know they have dyslexia to begin with? One of the biggest hurdles for students is having a learning disability identified. But two new bills are on their way that will vastly change this.
House Bill 842 will mandate training for teachers, while Senate Bill 759 will require school boards to employ a dyslexia adviser. Both of these bills allow teachers to identify and assist dyslexic children. Every child deserves the best education no matter what challenges they are facing in their lives, and these bills should better ensure those well-deserved opportunities.
In addition to accommodations, you’ll want a program to develop the weaker micro-skills, and developing them into successes
The best way to do that is to get started on the Learning Success System today!

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.
