It’s normal to have complicated feelings about this. The more you learn about dyslexia, the more you can give your child a positive experience.

This weekend, millions of Americans will celebrate the words that declared our nation’s independence.

Now imagine trying to read those words with one out of every five missing.

That is what an 80% reading accuracy goal can look like in practice. These low expectation goals are exceedingly common.

When schools set expectations that accept missing 20% of the words on a page, they are not measuring independence. They are measuring how much reading failure a child is expected to live with.

The freedom to read should not depend on luck, ZIP code, or the schools poorly selected curriculum.

This Fourth of July, remember that one of the greatest civil rights a child can gain is the ability to read the words that define their own freedom.

Teachers see inconsistency and often assume lack of effort. Parents see tears, exhaustion, and a child working twice as hard for half the result.

Sometimes what looks like inattention is actually dyslexia. Sometimes what looks like laziness is frustration.

Know the difference. It changes lives.

Child Find is a verb.
It means schools go looking for disabilities like dyslexia, not waiting for failure to pile high enough to be undeniable.

Early identification isn’t a favor. It’s a civil right under IDEA.
Every year we wait is a year a child practices believing the wrong story about themselves.

Let’s be the adults who notice early and act sooner!
