Alabama Reading Initiative
The Alabama Reading Initiative (ARI) is a program designed to improve reading skills among students in Alabama, from early elementary through middle school. It provides teachers with research-based strategies, resources, and professional development to help students become proficient readers. The goal is to ensure all students develop strong reading abilities, which are essential for learning across all subjects. By focusing on early intervention and effective teaching practices, ARI aims to boost literacy rates and support student success in school and beyond.
