This study seeks to identify correlation in the use of graphic organizers in reading comprehension of twelfth grade English language arts students. Specifically, this study seeks to determine if the use of graphic organizers in the teaching of reading has impacts on the reading comprehension of 12th grade English language arts students. The study intends to contribute to closing an information gap surrounding the effects of using instructional strategies such as graphic organizers in reading comprehension in a twelfth-grade English class. The research questions helped to guide this study in identifying descriptive statistics within PSAT reading comprehension scores during the 2021-2022 school year using Prentice Hall workbooks and SAT reading comprehension scores during the 2022-2023 school year using Study Sync workbooks. Descriptive statistics between ESOL PSAT reading comprehension scores during the 2021-2022 using Prentice Hall workbooks and ESOL SAT reading comprehension scores during the 2022-2023 school year using Study Sync workbooks were analyzed. The study followed a quantitative method to study the correlation of graphic organizers on reading comprehension of students in the twelfth grade. A Pearson correlation was used to measure and interpret scores between 2021-2022 PSAT and 2022-2023 SAT was applied to identify correlation significance of using graphic organizers on reading comprehension of students in the twelfth grade. A G-power analysis was calculated to identify the sample size for a Pearson's r correlation for post hoc data. Findings may assist high school teachers and educational leaders to consider implementing graphic organizers as an instructional strategy in reading comprehension to increase student reading achievement.
