In Ohio, schools have a responsibility to make sure students are on track for reading success by the end of third grade. At the beginning of each year, students are screened to determine whether or not they are on track for their grade. If a student is identified as not on track, they will need a Reading Improvement and Monitoring Plan (RIMP) and the parents must be notified that their child requires additional support.
When this document is completed, the student will be placed under eligibility review for the K-4 Literacy program and a deadline will be calculated for 60 days after the determination was made to complete a RIMP.
