Abstract | Leaders across North Carolina believe strongly in the potential for all students to read proficiently by 3rd grade. Yet despite significant effort and investment, only 36% of 4th graders are at or above proficient in reading. The Belk Foundation, in partnership with The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI), The Foundation for Excellence in Education (ExcelinEd) and the Florida Center for Reading Research (FCRR), began a research project in 2019 with a central belief in the importance of teachers in developing young readers. The question was asked: What did teachers actually know about the science of reading and where did they need more support? This report, informed by a survey sent to a representative sample of North Carolina (NC) K-3 teachers, provides valuable insight. The teacher needs assessment survey overwhelmingly found that North Carolina is on the right track to ensure teachers know the research behind reading development. Further, the survey findings point to the critical work ahead: teachers may know the research, but they must be able to apply that knowledge to their instructional practice. The findings show that instructional coaching -- helping teachers use the knowledge learned in professional development to adjust their instruction with children -- is the next frontier for quality implementation of early literacy initiatives. North Carolina has taken bold steps with state legislation and recent investments in teacher training. That progress now depends on successful implementation.
