For many adolescent readers, comprehension challenges may be a symptom of something deeper.
About this Event

National research shows that many older students are still missing foundational reading skills.

Join your fellow district leaders for an interactive conversation about what striving adolescent readers actually need.




During this interactive conversation, we’ll discuss:
  • What national research reveals about adolescent readers and unfinished literacy learning
  • How to identify the underlying skills that may be holding readers back
  • What these insights mean for district intervention strategy and support



Bringing the Conversation to Salt Lake City

What do striving adolescent readers need to move forward? Our keynote speaker, Dr. Shannon Eldridge, Academic Specialist for High Schools at DeSoto County Schools in Mississippi, brings a decade of building secondary literacy infrastructure at district scale. She'll give district leaders a practical, long-haul framework for adolescent literacy intervention. Area district and school leaders will have the opportunity to share perspectives and consider practical approaches for supporting older students with unfinished literacy learning.

Space is limited. Register today to reserve your seat.
