Language Leads to Literacy Success: California Administrators Find the Secret Sauce With Lexia English

For a comprehensive literacy solution that raises test scores and meets the needs of Newcomer students, administrators across California trust Lexia English Language Development™ as their secret ingredient for success.

How much success does Lexia English bring? In a 2021–2022 study, students using Lexia English scored 25 points higher on the California ELPAC and 18 points higher on the state ELA assessment than students who did not use the program.

How does an ELD program improve literacy? Speaking, listening, reading, and writing are the four fundamental skills of language.To become proficient English readers, students need to master the oral skills that provide vocabulary and grammar. That’s where Lexia English excels, with its emphasis on academic English conversation practice. 

Yadhira Rojas, a teacher on special assignment at California’s Laguna Beach Unified School District, said of Lexia English, “I’ve never seen a program that emphasizes speaking as much—the way that we speak and the way that we use language to respond. It really makes [Lexia English] different.”

Beyond its classroom instruction, the program provides California administrators and educators with real-time insight and student progress reporting, enabling early identification and tailored support for English Language Learners, especially Newcomers.
