The New York City Board of Education under Title I of the Elementary Secondary Education Act has instituted a program of special corrective reading services for disadvantaged children in nonpublic schools. Under the program, the Board of Education through its Division of Funded Programs, Office of ESEA Title I Programs for the Non-public Schools, recruits, selects, trains, and assigns licensed teachers to eligible non-public schools in order to improve the reading achievement of children who have been identified as having reading problems. During the 1971-72 school year, the program is in its sixth full year of operation, encompasses 172 schools serving 8297 children, and is staffed by 41 full-time and 120 part-time corrective reading teachers. The Corrective Reading Services Program was developed to provide elementary and secondary school students with three basic activities in small group settings: (a) verbal discussions geared to develop and enrich a basic meaning vocabulary; (b) word analysis activities geared to develop independence in decoding; and, (c) guided and independent reading activities geared to develop ability to comprehend written materials. This final report includes an evaluation of the program's implementation, an assessment of the program's effectiveness, and an evaluation of the program by the professional staff and parents who participated in the program.
