Bill overview
This bill amends Tennessee law to create a new endorsement for educators focused on supporting students with dyslexia. The State Board of Education will establish a ‘Qualified Dyslexia Interventionist’ endorsement, requiring educators to obtain a specific credential (C-SLDI) from a recognized organization like CERI and the IDA. This endorsement will allow educators to provide targeted support to students showing signs of dyslexia, such as instructional intervention and behavioral support. Importantly, the bill does not prevent existing educators from providing similar support if they are otherwise authorized.
