The Science of Reading

Title 1A Parent Involvement

At Lockport City School District, we believe in giving students the strongest start possible. That’s why we’ve adopted Benchmark Advance for grades K-6 — a program built on the Science of Reading.

The Science of Reading is not a new idea. It’s decades of research that shows how children learn to read best — through clear, careful teaching of sounds, letters, words, and meaning.

Benchmark Advance follows this trusted research. It gives our teachers the tools to teach reading the right way — step-by-step, so no student is left behind.
With Benchmark Advance, every child builds the skills they need to become a strong, confident reader.

We’re proud to bring the best research into our classrooms — and proud to see our students grow every day!
