COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) – A high number of Ohio students are not reading at grade level but a state law that mandates a certain type of instruction called the "science of reading" aims to fix that.
“We’ve got to do something, seriously,” Rep. Tom Young (R-Washington Township) said. “This is the future, not to be trite, but this is the future of our state.”
On Wednesday afternoon the Ohio House Higher Education Committee, chaired by Young, heard from some of the state departments that are implementing the changes.
