In the debut episode of RewirED, the Connecticut State Department of Education's Lisa Gianni explores the newly developed Structured Literacy and Dyslexia Competencies. Listeners will learn what structured literacy looks like in practice; how these evidence-based competencies are designed to strengthen educators’ confidence and effectiveness in supporting all learners; how this work moves beyond checklists and frameworks—serving as a catalyst for system-wide change that establishes a common language, a clear vision, and a pathway toward making Connecticut public schools the standard of excellence for students with dyslexia and other reading disabilities.
