AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
Starting in July 2026, Utah's larger public school districts must screen every kindergarten, first-grade, and second-grade student for dyslexia at least once per school year, while smaller districts must use their regional education service agency to conduct the same screenings. Charter schools may participate voluntarily or when a parent requests it, and parents of students in homeschool, online, or scholarship programs can request a state-administered screening as well. The State Board of Education is required to distribute funding to support these efforts, hire or contract screening personnel, and establish rules for approving reliable screening tools.
