The article investigates the reading achievement scores of 66 third and fourth grade student who were suspected to have reading disability as referred by their teachers. Before naming students with reading disability, they were evaluated through the Intervention Assistance Team. The result indicates that out of 66 students referred, 21 of them have reading disability. Only 45% of the students passed the state minimum competency reading test. Implications of these results were discussed.
