In October 2015, the Alabama State School Board passed administrative code that officially recognized dyslexia as a learning challenge for some of Alabama's children.

As part of the dyslexia code, each school's Problem Solving Team (PST) works to evaluate any student who demonstrates significant reading concerns. The PST then recommends how the general classroom teachers can support the dyslexic student's academic growth during the school year.
