Our school is working to make a shift from a balanced literacy approach to one that is centered around the Science of Reading. The books about the shift from balanced literacy to the science of reading will be a great resource for teachers as they learn more about the Science of Reading and how to best teach students how to read.
We would like to make this shift school-wide so that all students benefit from this and we can begin to close the gap of our lowest reading students.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
