NRHEG superintendent staff present local literacy plan; board notified of June 15 submission deadline
Summary
District staff summarized a 16‑area local literacy plan for the school board, outlined screening and intervention tools (FastBridge, CAP‑3, Barton), and said assessment data is being gathered with a June 15 submission target.
District staff presented the NRHEG local literacy plan template and data‑gathering status, and told the board the plan will be finalized for submission by June 15.
The presenter summarized the 16 reporting areas required by Minnesota’s template, including screening counts, curricular resources, intervention strategies and professional development. She said the district will continue to use FastBridge for early screening and CAP‑3 (CAP3) for secondary screening, and that intervention resources include Barton for intensive one‑on‑one work and targeted small‑group instruction in early grades.
The presenter told the board that spring assessment results were still being finalized and that some reporting numbers would be completed after end‑of‑week testing. She said the literacy plan connects to broader district goals — the presenter referenced aligning literacy goals to career‑ and college‑readiness (CACR/MCA) outcomes — and described next steps including a workshop this week to build final goals.
Superintendent remarks during the meeting clarified that board presentation is not required before submission but that staff presented to keep the board informed; administration plans to return with a final presentation in June.
Board members asked clarifying questions about screening counts and assessment reporting; staff said parent notification practices and multi‑tiered systems of support (MTSS) are part of the plan’s sections.
