I am grateful to be on the amazing @FCPSElemLA team to lead this movement in Fairfax County. Changing our approach to provide explicit, systematic reading instruction that will have a positive impact on black and brown students. Our very own @CarrieLeestma was interviewed!
"In the wake of George Floyd’s death, (NAACP) committee membership exploded. By 2021, it had committed to its most ambitious goal yet: overhauling the way Fairfax County Public Schools teaches students to read and supports struggling readers." https://t.co/8nj5CG3SuV
"Alabama... sent over 30,000 struggling readers to summer literacy camps last year. Half of those students tested at grade level by the end of the summer."
I want to know more about this. Anyone have deeper details?
