THE READ 180
PERFORMANCE PLEDGE
When implemented with fidelity, the majority of students
will break the cycle of failure and show
significant growth in reading, as measured by Lexiles.
Successful implementation of READ 180 is a
shared responsibility. For an overview of the responsibilities
of Scholastic and its district partners, see below.
