The Kansas State Department of Education (KSDE) has allocated a portion of the State's ESSER funds to address potential learning loss caused by the shift to remote instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic. This disruption impacted the foundational literacy skills of young students in Kansas. In response, KSDE is supporting LETRS® training to all educators who work in KSDE-accredited public or private schools.
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).
KSDE will continue to provide LETRS and LETRS for Early Childhood course licenses for use by LCFs until state purchased licenses have been exhausted. Course licenses will be available only to educators who have school district email addresses and have not previously received any state purchased LETRS course.
LETRS for Administrators is only available provided directly by Lexia and all current training groups are full. There will be one last state funded LETRS for Administrators training group starting Winter (January 2026) with a registration deadline of November 30, 2025. Participation in this course is open to:
