Literacy Resources

Guided by Georgia Reads Ambassador Betsy Evans, the Foundation was co-convener for an event hosted by the District on October 30th. The agenda featured remarks by the Superintendent Sauce, presentations by experts on literacy data, and evidence-based approaches for addressing literacy for District students and families.
Ms. Evans invited approximately 80 community stakeholders to attend the event and share experiences and resources on improving literacy. The Foundation is sharing the information and presentations here, as part of our mission to share knowledge and encourage collaboration on improving literacy.
