Abstract: This brief focuses on the 2023-2024 school-year implementation of "My Reading Academy" by the Early Learning Coalition of Palm Beach County (ELC PBC) that led its deployment in voluntary pre-K (VPK) classrooms across the School District of Palm Beach County (SDPBC) and independently operated for-profit and nonprofit centers, including Head Start. Examined is the impact of using "My Reading Academy" on students' year-end achievement on the Star Early Literacy™ Assessment, as well as educators' reports on the impact of the program on students' early reading skills. The average monthly growth made by students on the Star Early Literacy™ Assessment as well as the percent of students ending the school year kindergarten-ready are highlighted given the new VPK accountability standards that have been adopted in the summer of 2024. These new accountability standards set the expectation that each child needs to grow at least 12 points per month, and defines 707 as the score on the Star Early Literacy™ Assessment indicating that a student is kindergarten-ready.
