Designing Literacy Focused Schools
Learning-Focused
One-Day Institute
Prince Frederick, MD
February 19, 2020
Dear Educator,
We have a vision, and we hope you have it too. We see a school where every student has the benefit of having a highly effective teacher. But, vision without action is only a dream. So, how are we going to transform this vision into reality? The answer to that is simple. You.
When you attend a Designing Literacy Focused Schools Insitute, you will learn the research-based and evidence-based practices with the emphasis on the literacy practices that previously low-performing schools used to dramatically improve their performance.
The content comes from research and evaluations examining the implementation and outcomes of the federal Comprehensive School Reform (CSR) program. Learn which common practices were the link for all levels of schools – elementary, middle and high. The literacy practices were also a driving force with schools representing the quick-and-dramatic improvements as well as schools representing the slow-and-steady practices of school improvement.
Join us to learn how to help shift your instruction, your school, and your district into one that has turned vision into reality.
