According to the National Association of Educational Progress, 34% of Wisconsin’s students are BELOW basic in reading. This means 1:3 WI students have sub-literacy skills including weak fluency and word recognition.
The Literacy Lunch & Lead Series is designed to connect WI Literacy Leaders with Literacy Leaders who have demonstrated systems changes in their schools or districts. If you are interested in learning more about analyzing your district’s systems, structures, and use of evidenced-based literacy practices, this series is for you!
