Oklahoma’s SB 1778 strengthens the Strong Readers Act and changes how literacy funding flows to districts. For curriculum and instruction directors, the questions are immediate: What does the law require? When does each requirement take effect? How does the funding work, and what should we do first?

This free playbook answers them. Inside, you’ll find a plain-English breakdown of all seven district requirements, a clear timeline of key dates through the 2027-2028 school year, an explanation of the four Strong Readers funding sources, and a 90-day action framework for getting your district’s Strong Readers Plan submitted and approved.

You’ll also see how Broken Arrow Public Schools, an Oklahoma district, is already meeting these goals, with more K-3 students reading on grade level year over year.

Whether you lead a large district or a small rural one, this guide gives you a starting point. Download the SB 1778 District Leader’s Playbook and build your plan with confidence.
