“Two bills passed during the 2015 Oregon legislative session should help. Senate Bill 612 calls for at least one teacher in every K-5 school to be trained in teaching and identifying dyslexia; to screen all kindergartners and first-graders for dyslexia; and to designate a dyslexia specialist at the Oregon Department of Education.
House Bill 2412 directs the state Teacher Standards and Practices Commission to ensure that the 20 early childhood education programs in the state incorporate dyslexia training into their college curriculum.”
