Third Grade Reading Guarantee
Research shows that children who are not reading at a third grade level by the end of grade three will likely have difficulty learning in all classroom subjects in higher grades. Ohio's Third Grade Reading Guarantee (TGRG) is a program to identify students from kindergarten through grade 3 who are behind in reading and ensures that a support plan is put in place to help each child achieve reading success. Current state law requires students to pass the 3rd Grade English Language Arts State Test in order to be eligible for promotion to 4th Grade.
Be sure to check the Infinite Campus Portal on Tuesday, November 22nd for a letter informing parents/caregivers if their Kindergarten through third grade student(s) is On-Track or Off-Track to meet the (TGRG) requirement. Additionally, any student that is “Off-Track” will have a Reading Improvement and Monitoring Plan that is also available in Infinite Campus. Please reach out to your child’s teacher to have them further explain the Reading Improvement and Monitoring Plan that has been created for your child and how you can help.
