If you can’t read, you are excluded from much of the discourse in society and in school. This breeds loneliness, apathy and resentment.

Even in middle school my friends....students should still be reading text and not just listening to it. We need to build on their fluency skills that will foster READING comprehension skills....not just listening comprehension. #HMHCo

Some of our 7th graders are reading this book right now. If you have not read it, it's a must! Add it to your list. We promise you won't be disappointed. Chock full of figurative language! :) @kaaauthor

@BSPAHS @BSMS_Scotties parents, this is worth 4 mins of your time. A clip from @TODAYshow about kids, coping, and coronavirus. Discusses social media, anxiety, depression, etc. Don’t assume taking the phone away is the answer. Good discussion starter. https://t.co/wFf6WQfFGt

Learning to read begins at home through everyday parent-child interactions, long before children attend school. These activities by @REL_SE include easy-to-follow plans to help you support your child's foundational reading skills at home.
