Mississippi’s literacy law helps ensure every student reads at or above grade level by the end of grade 3.
The law requires teachers to identify struggling readers and to provide immediate, intensive reading instruction to meet each student’s specific reading needs. Third-grade students must pass a reading test at the end of the year to qualify for promotion to grade 4.
