Many schools and school districts across the United States are using the PRIDE Reading Program with great success.

I have 3 kids with dyslexia in the San Diego Unified School District. Unfortunately, as of 03/2021, their school is still refusing to implement a structured literacy reading program. I was told by the principal that only 1 school within the district purchased the PRIDE program. This is unfortunate. My kids keep falling behind with the current balanced literacy program.

Thank you for advocating for your children’s needs! Programs like PRIDE are working hard to get on every school and district’s radar, but parents really are a huge driving force in the movement to have early dyslexia screening and structured literacy curriculum implemented across the country. Part of why we offer PRIDE as a homeschool curriculum is so parents whose children aren’t getting structured literacy instruction at school help their children at home.
