What is the South Carolina Read to Succeed Act?
Often called Read to Succeed, R2S, or Act 114, this South Carolina law was first created in 2014 and was updated in 2024. The Read to Succeed Act requires educators and leaders to use the science of reading to guide teaching and classroom activities to ensure all students are reading proficiently and on grade level by 3rd Grade.
What is the science of reading?
The science of reading (SOR) is all about understanding how children learn to read based on decades of research from fields like psychology, linguistics, and education. SOR shows us the best ways to teach reading so all students can become strong, confident readers. It focuses on teaching the building blocks of reading: how to recognize sounds in words (phonics), understand how letters work together, build vocabulary, and comprehend what they are reading.
When schools use the science of reading, they’re using proven methods that help students not just memorize words but really understand how reading works, which helps them succeed in school and beyond.
