Gothamist | Three years after Mayor Eric Adams made supporting students with dyslexia a top educational priority, parents, advocates and educators say the public school system is still unable to serve too many students with the disability.

Advocates cautioned patience while calling for additional improvements. Experts have said major curricular shifts take time, and results often don’t show up until five or 10 years later.

“A very important message that is hard to hear sometimes but very true is that change of this magnitude takes time,” said Kim Sweet, executive director of Advocates for Children of New York.
