Only 40% of students learn to read with broad instruction. 60% of students WILL NOT learn that way, therefore they need code-based EXPLICIT, systematic, and sequential instruction, which is what Hancock County Schools currently offer our students through Structured literacy instruction. Students in Hancock County begin Orton- Gillingham instruction in Kindergarten and continue portions of it throughout their elementary years. Then, students in middle and high are taught the Word structure through instruction in Morphology.
