Lexia® PowerUp Literacy® Kentucky Progress Report

Lexia® PowerUp Literacy® accelerates literacy gains for students in grades 6–12, whether they are several grade levels behind or show some risk of not meeting College- and Career-Ready Standards. With more than 40 years' experience delivering science of reading-based solutions, Lexia’s literacy experts designed PowerUp to maximize student learning through a truly personalized experience that addresses individual skill gaps and impacts reading proficiency and academic success. 

Proven to be up to 5x as effective as the average middle school intervention, PowerUp enables students to make multiple years of growth in a single academic year. PowerUp respects the maturity of the adolescent learner with high-interest authentic texts and motivational elements. Without stopping for a test, educators—regardless of their area of expertise—can assess students’ skill levels and deliver the right instruction. This targeted approach allows each student to make literacy gains quickly and develop the reading and critical thinking skills necessary to meet the demands of secondary curriculum and beyond.

PowerUp helped more than 5,800 Kentucky students in grades 6–12 during the 2023–2024 school year make gains in their literacy knowledge. Fifty-three percent of students who used the program with fidelity saw three grade levels of growth in a single year, helping them more effectively read to learn. By the end of the school year, less than 7% of students were working on K–2 skills in each strand of material.
