Supplemental Funding for Literacy Coaching

Summary

The bill requires the Utah State Board of Education to give supplemental funding for literacy coaching to local education agencies and to certain small schools whose average scores on the state benchmark reading assessment fall below the statewide average. Funding is set at half a full‑time coach for most districts, but a full‑time coach for districts with fewer than 300 students or for schools showing especially low growth. The aim is to improve reading outcomes where they are lagging.
