The Elementary Literacy Resource Library is a living digital hub designed to empower educators with high-quality, evidence-based instructional supports.

Monthly editions of the Literacy Spotlight provide K-5+ teachers with lesson ready resources, planning reminders, and often feature classroom examples of literacy learning in action from around our District.

Adolescent Literacy involves social, intellectual, and political competencies needed for middle and secondary students to make sense of a multitude of message streams. Also called, “Disciplinary Literacy,” it involves navigating the particular ways to think, read, and write in each subject area.
