Reading Success Summit
Registration for the Reading Success Summit is now closed. Once students transition from the 3rd to 4th grade, they go from learning to read to reading to learn. This means children are expected to use reading to learn other subjects. Kids who reach fourth grade without being able to read proficiently are more likely to struggle academically. The data shows students who can’t read at a proficient level or above in 3rd grade are 4 times more likely not to graduate high school by the age of 19. This leads to higher dropout rates and likely results in difficulties finding [...]

The Supporting Our Students Action Team was convened at the request of several community stakeholders in response to changes in education resulting from the COVID-19 global pandemic. This action team existed to expand opportunities and address equity for students impacted by the move to off-site, virtual learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The focus of the team’s work was on social-emotional/trauma-informed practices/professional development for non-profit partners working with students. This team is a continuation of the work of the Childcare for Students team, which was created during [...]
