Aloha from Hawai'i. More attention needs to be paid to the Dyslexic Child, identifying, diagnosis, and treatment. The Biology Teacher stated 15 to 20% of the population has some form of dyslexia; which goes undiagnosed. Children stuck at 3rd and 4th grade level reading are often found to be dyslexic. Worst Case Scenarios and outcomes are significant; with negative impacts on child including severe depression, isolation, drug abuse, teenage pregnancy, dropping out of school, and suicide. Jail is often outcome when dyslexic person has not received any help, and they were unable to fund gainful employment. The Teachers need more training on this important issue. Perhaps research grants and special programs could be implemented.
Thank you for your feedback posted on October 18, 2024 responding to a 60-day request for comments on the proposed School Pulse Panel (SPP) 2025-26 Preliminary Activities Package. The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) appreciates your interest in and support of SPP. I have provided a response to your comments below.
We appreciate your concerns around children with dyslexia. However, the SPP is a survey for public school principals and does not focus on the implementation of research grants or special programs.
Thank you again for your comment.
Sincerely,
