Dyslexia Screeners: What they CAN & CANNOT Do

Dyslexia screeners can be helpful—but they are often misunderstood. In this video, we break down what dyslexia screeners can tell you, what they can’t, and why a “passing” screener does not always mean everything is fine. Think of screeners like airport security: they’re designed to flag potential concerns, not conduct a full investigation. They can identify early risk, help schools decide who may need a closer look, and prevent some students from slipping through the cracks. But screeners cannot diagnose dyslexia, they are not 100% accurate, and they should never replace a comprehensive evaluation. With nearly 80% of U.S. states now requiring dyslexia screening in early elementary school, awareness is improving—but the quality of screeners varies widely. Some tools are evidence-based and highly accurate, while others are quick checklists that miss critical warning signs. This is why many families hear, “The screener was fine,” only to discover years later that dyslexia was present all along. In this video, we cover: • What dyslexia screeners are designed to do • Why passing a screener doesn’t rule out dyslexia • The difference between screening and a full evaluation • What a comprehensive dyslexia evaluation should include • When parents should trust their instincts and push for answers Early identification matters—not just for reading outcomes, but for confidence, emotional well-being, and long-term success. Screeners are a starting line, not a finish line.
