Kansas LETRS

Kansas Science of Reading Professional Learning Course with LETRS®

To address the potential learning loss caused by the shift to remote instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Kansas State Department of Education (KSDE) has allocated a portion of the State's ESSER funds. This disruption impacted the foundational literacy skills of young students in Kansas. In response, KSDE is offering free LETRS® training to all educators who work in KSDE-accredited public or private elementary schools or who provide reading instruction to struggling learners at any grade level. 

LETRS is available through regional service centers and in-district with LETRS Local Certified Facilitators (LCFs). 

LETRS for Early Childhood is available through regional service centers and in-district with LETRS Local Certified Facilitators (LCFs).
