Research indicates a national decline in literacy rates, yet school leaders often focus solely on assessment-driven approaches, limiting opportunities for independent reading. While assessments are important for measuring student growth, motivating students to read more through a holistic reading culture is essential for progress.
This webinar will provide insights into Richland County School District One's comprehensive approach to fostering a thriving reading culture. Presenters will discuss school-specific initiatives, community partnerships, district-wide efforts like book funding and distribution, and the Superintendent's Book Club challenge.
