What is Reading Intervention?

Reading Specialists focus on students most in need of intensive reading intervention based on district qualifying criteria. 

Reading Specialists serve Kindergarten-3rd grade students on all campuses. 

Reading Intervention services are Tier 3 based on Leander ISD’s Response to Intervention (RtI) model.

The Leander I.S.D. Reading Intervention Program includes:

• Daily structured reading intervention taught by a Reading Specialist. Intervention is tied to assessment and progress monitoring in addition to Core Reading Instruction that is provided by the classroom teacher.

• Progress Monitoring every 2 weeks 

• Collaboration between classroom teachers and Reading Specialist to communicate student progress and share strategies that benefit student progress.

• Meet with students 30 minutes 4 times a week.
