Science of Reading Success Depends on School Boards    Lon Garrison Executive Director, Association of Alaska School Boards   With the passage of the Alaska Reads Act by the 32nd Alaska Legislature, the Science of Reading (SOR) has been thrust into the spotlight as the way forward to improve early student literacy.  SOR is a multifaceted, science and evidence-based approach to teaching students how to read -in any language.  A key element to ensuring the implementation and effective transition of an SOR approach is the support and involvement of local school boards.  Locally elected school boards are the governance body of our public education system that set policy and allocate resources (funding) to educate the district's students.  School boards have specific responsibilities that will affect the success of the Alaska Reads Act and the Science of Reading approach.   First, school boards are the local adopters of the curriculum for any instruction within the district, including the Science of Reading.  It is critically important for school boards, their administration, and teaching staff to collaborate and work together to find the best fit of both instructional practice and instructional materials that will fulfill the intent of the Alaska Reads Act through the Science of Reading.    The allocation of resources, primarily funding and the approval of staffing for the effective implementation of the Science of Reading, is also the board's sole responsibility.  During times of dwindling and insufficient education funding, this is not an easy task.  Advocacy and communication by school boards and their administrators to the Alaska Legislature, the Governor, and DEED may be a necessary part of this responsibility if appropriate and effective reading support is to be achieved.   Policy is the purview of local school boards to govern the district.  School boards may need to review board policies focused on instruction, students, and personnel to ensure they provide the necessary guidance and support for SOR.  Boards may find that their policies are adequate but that administrative regulation, the administrative response to policy, needs to be modified for alignment with the practice of the Science of Reading.   Lastly, school boards must hold themselves accountable through monitoring and evaluation.  Because school boards are the final authority within a school district for meeting the requirements of the law and local expectations for student success, they must monitor progress through appropriate evaluation.  School boards must work with their staff to effectively use data to inform their decisions.  It is through this process that school boards can effect changes, like the implementation of the Science of Reading, and ultimately improve student outcomes like early literacy.

Introduction to Alyeska Reading Institute

The Alyeska Reading Institute (ARI) is a division within DEED specifically designed to support districts and provide services for the successful implementation of the Alaska Reads Act. With a team of highly qualified reading experts, ARI offers adult-centered and student-centered learning opportunities.  Our services will be accessible remotely or on-site in the Anchorage area.  

ARI's intervention programs and supplemental materials are aligned with the Science of Reading and the AK Reads Act.  By utilizing ARI tutoring services, we can provide support to both your staff and students.  Instructional staff can observe the delivery of high-quality reading instruction enhancing their own knowledge and skills.  Students will have access to personalized reading instruction based on their Individual Reading Improvement Plan (IRIPs).  This instruction will be supplemental to the core literacy program offered before, during, or after the instructional day.  

If you would like more information about the Alyeska Reading Institute, please reach out to the ARI Director, Carol Boatman at carol.boatman@alaska.gov.  We look forward to partnering with your district and families to ensure all Alaskan children are reading by the end of third grade.

DEED Assessment Outreach Project Survey

The Alaska Department of Education and Early Development (DEED) has partnered with Denali Daniels + Associates to host a series of discussions and information gathering activities to better understand the assessment needs of entities serving Alaska Native students.  We are seeking input from parents, educators, and community members interested in contributing to perspectives about assessments for Alaska Native students.

Alaska Distance Learning Consortium     DEED would like to share some exciting news about the Alaska Reads Act. One of the developing components of the AK Reads Act is the Alaska Distance Learning Consortium (ADLC).   What is the ADLC?   ADLC is a network of schools working together to provide distance learning opportunities to Alaska students. Whether your district already has a robust distance learning program or is looking for a way to provide more distance learning courses, the ADLC is an excellent opportunity to connect with fellow Alaska school districts and expand the courses available to your student population.   The main requirements of the ADLC are stated in the Alaska Reads Act. Still, many of the fine details will be decided by the ADLC Governing Board consisting of six representatives from around the state (pending State Board of Education approval of virtual education consortium regulations). The main responsibility of the governing board is to establish and maintain a database of virtual education courses available to Alaska students. The board will also be part of selecting professional development for teachers pertaining to virtual learning and adopting a policy to determine previous experience and skills needed for a teacher to deliver or facilitate virtual coursework through the consortium database. Additionally, the governing board will take part in evaluating and selecting courses for students that meet course requirements set forth by the Department of Education and Early Development.    This is an exciting time to broaden the courses offered to our students by our very own Alaska teachers. Please take a few minutes to complete the application for the ADLC governing board or encourage a representative from your district to apply. The application deadline is August 15, 2023. We anticipate one in-person meeting this fall and one in the spring. All other meetings will be virtual.  Note that SY 23-24 is for setting up the Board and meetings, while SY 24-25 will be for the actual launch of ADLC.     DEED looks forward to connecting with Alaska schools to promote distance learning opportunities. Thank you for your partnership!   Questions?  Please contact Emily.Svedin@alaska.gov.

Reporting and Data Collections Districts - The DEED Data Team has provided a document to use as guidance for reporting and data collections.  This document can be located here.    State-Sponsored Literacy Screener The Alaska Reads Act went into effect July 1, 2023 requiring a literacy screener be administered to all students in Kindergarten through grade three.  Any person responsible for administering the literacy screener assessment is required to attend a minimum of one full initial training prior to administering the assessment.   Literacy Screener and Alaska Reads Act supporting and guiding documents are being uploaded on the DEED website.  More documents will be uploaded over the summer months, check it out here, https://education.alaska.gov/Alaska-Reading-Resources/Statewide-Early-Literacy-Screener  Questions? Contact Tracy Parker, tracy.parker@alaska.gov

IMPORTANT FREE COURSE INFORMATION

K-3 Alaska Reads Act Verified: Alaska DEED FREE Reads Act

Professional Development Courses

Guidelines/Expectations – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

All certified educators who teach, provide, and/or supervise reading instruction to students in grades K-3 must complete Alaska DEED-approved evidenced-based training (these courses are currently open to anyone working in K-6). An educator is defined as a professional who is responsible for, creates, or supervises the literacy instruction of student(s). This may include, but not limited to, the primary classroom teacher, an instructional coach, a reading Interventionist (in grades K-3), a special education teacher, an English language learner teacher, a Title I teacher, building principal, director, or ANY other educators who are responsible for supervising/delivering reading instruction and have been employed to teach kindergarten or any of grades one through three.

Alaska DEED is covering the cost of an educator to participate in one FREE PD course to meet Alaska Reads Act educator requirements (currently, Keys to Literacy, NWEA for Leaders, and LETRS).  An educator must successfully COMPLETE a course in its entirety to avoid being dropped from the course. Please check your schedule for live session dates and the coursework requirements for potential conflicts prior to enrolling. The expectations of these graduate-level courses are listed below:

• Attend ALL virtual-live meetings for the course (MUST attend the FIRST and LAST meetings)
• Complete ALL modules in the asynchronous online course.
• Complete the pre-assessment and receive a passing score on the post-assessment.
• Complete ALL course requirements within the course timeframe.

In the case of emergency, participants may miss one meeting in between the first and last meetings but need to attend the missed live session facilitated by Alaska DEED within the course timeframe.  You MUST notify a course instructor or Alaska DEED (akreads@alaska.gov) before the next course meeting if an emergency arises. 

Due to the high cost and demand of these courses, Alaska DEED must avoid losing course seats due to registrants not participating or dropping courses.  Should this be the case, please understand that registering for a course that you do not complete may result in loss of priority to register for free Alaska DEED professional development in the future.  Keep in mind, this could mean paying for a course or exam out of pocket to meet Alaska Reads Act educator requirements if no seats become available in the FREE Alaska DEED courses.

Yukon Flats Share Out

In April, Yukon Flats School District was hosted as DEED's School Spotlight for the school improvement journey they were on.  Much hard work and many components were playing into the overall big picture of increasing student reading achievement.  

DEED heard from Yukon Flats recently, as they are in the middle of a summer school session only for those seriously at risk in the district.  They are very excited about how their extended learning opportunity for students is going, and had this to say:

A couple of teachers and about a half dozen paras are working to implement the intervention plan created by Matthew Stark to serve the students who needed the most focused goals.  This summer opportunity was not open to everyone and that shift came as a surprise to some.  Feedback from the communities shows that they are pleased with a solid plan and detailed program for not only the summer school, but for the upcoming school year. 

Congratulations on your continued hard work, goal setting and finding creative ways to support students where it's needed.  Thank you for sharing!
