Reading Horizons® Earns Endorsement From the Council of Administrators of Special Education (CASE)

Reading Horizons Discovery Product Suite and Reading Horizons Elevate endorsed by the leading professional organization dedicated to special education.

KAYSVILLE, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Reading Horizons® is proud to announce that the Council of Administrators of Special Education (CASE) has endorsed its foundational literacy products for another three-year term. This official endorsement, valid from September 19, 2024, through September 19, 2027, reaffirms Reading Horizons’ continued commitment to providing effective literacy solutions for educators and students in the special education field.

The rigorous review process conducted by the CASE Product Review Committee confirmed that Reading Horizons K-12 products met all the criteria for endorsement. This endorsement solidifies Reading Horizons' position as a trusted resource in special education, supporting administrators and educators in delivering high-quality reading instruction to all students, including those with special needs.

“I have watched this program transform one student from someone who would cry before attempting to read—out of fear of saying the wrong thing—to a student who is now asking to read questions aloud,” said Tawni Steiger, Resource and SPED Teacher in Silsbee ISD in Texas. “I cannot say enough how much I truly love this program!”

Last month, Reading Horizons Discovery Product Suite and Reading Horizons Elevate were included in Tech & Learning's 2024 “Best Tools for Back to School.” The annual awards help education leaders find the most effective educational technologies to drive innovation in their districts. Winners were selected based on their impact, usability, and overall contribution to education. Reading Horizons’ differentiated instruction resources and embedded coaching help educators modify instruction to support students in Special Education settings, ensuring appropriate depth, speed, and intensity.

"We are honored to receive this endorsement from CASE," said Stephanie Myers, Chief Strategy Officer at Reading Horizons. "This recognition reflects our ongoing dedication to equipping K-12 educators with the resources to help every student succeed. We are committed to continuous improvement and are excited to further our support for special education professionals."
