Summary

Elementary leaders presented an early‑literacy mission and framework to align instruction across three elementary buildings and described teacher commitments to evidence‑based strategies, vocabulary and comprehension instruction.

Elementary and district literacy leaders presented a unified early‑literacy mission and framework designed to align practice across the district’s three elementary buildings. Leaders described teacher commitments and an implementation approach that included a literacy playbook and the ODE’s early literacy framework; they said teachers completed a self‑assessment and returned strong support for the plan. "We asked our little guys in our building to be star reader... and our mission... supporting all students using evidence‑based strategies and curricula," a district literacy leader said.

Presenters outlined next steps for teacher professional learning and shared sample classroom commitments. The board thanked literacy staff for the work and acknowledged that the mission was intended to tailor shared goals to each building’s unique makeup while maintaining consistency across the district.
