This document presents a description and evaluation of the Corrective Reading Services Program designed to serve approximately 13,769 eligible, educationally deprived pupils in 229 nonpublic schools of New York City during the 1974-1975 school year. The purpose of the program was to improve the reading level of the students through a corrective reading component designed to supplement the regular reading program of the schools served. Students in the program had to meet the dual eligibility criteria of residence in a target area and a level of educational achievement below minimum grade level competency. Emphasis in the selection process was placed on students between grades one and six, although students above that level who showed significant retardation were given service. Instructional time varied from one school to another. Classes ranged in length from 45 to 60 minutes. The instructional methods used by each teacher varied, but they were geared to meeting the needs of individual students. The evaluation had two aims: to determine if the implementation of the program had been conducted in accordance with the proposal guidelines and to determine if there was a statistically significant increase in pupil reading achievement for the 1974-1975 period, as measured by standardized tests. In terms of implementation, it was found that the program and the proposal guidelines coincided. In terms of pupil achievement, it was found that achievement in reading was outstanding, on the whole, the only exception being grades 10 and 12. (Author/AM)
