       The passage of Act 114 updates The Read to Succeed Act by requiring schools and districts to prepare comprehensive reading proficiency plans that are aligned to the science of reading, structured literacy and foundational literacy skills. This year's reading plan prompts schools and districts to respond in a narrative format.
