2025 House Bill 272: AN ACT relating to reading and writing in schools

The bill mandates annual updates to the dyslexia toolkit, which provides a resource educators and families to help meet the learning needs of students with dyslexia. It also expands the toolkit to include dysgraphia and requires local school boards to implement policies on dyslexia. It mandates data collection on dyslexia and requires teacher preparation programs to include dyslexia instruction.

The KSVT is in support of HB 272 because it promotes equitable educational opportunities by supporting students with specific learning disabilities.
