Our first snowfall of the year, forecasted to impact the entire state, occurred this week…while some counties received less than predicted, school leaders were not short on logistical preparations and weather calls to be made. Thank you for being nimble…and prepared this week and as we continue through the winter season.
One of our most important shared focuses is literacy. And, while, as educators, we focus on this mission everyday, on Wednesday it’s World Read Aloud Day. I encourage anyone reading today’s newsletter to take some time to read aloud to a child on Wednesday! If you’re a teacher, you do this daily…but if you’re a school staff member, parent, or community leader–consider taking some time to read to a child or join a classroom of children. I plan to stop in some schools and do the same!
We have an aggressive, statewide literacy goal….and in order to get there, we all (educators, parents, community leaders) have a part to play. Because we know…research shows that students who pass IREAD-3 (which measures foundational reading skills) are roughly 35% more likely to graduate high school. Yet today, one in five Indiana third grade students is not able to read at this important milestone…what an opportunity WE have to change this trajectory and get them there!
At the state and local level, we continue to work urgently to help more students become proficient readers. This includes…
- Our ongoing work to recognize schools and teachers that improve students’ passing rate on IREAD-3 and provide additional support for schools and students in greatest need of literacy support;
- Our partnership with Lilly Endowment, Inc. – the state’s largest-ever financial investment in literacy – which is laser focused on helping schools deploy science of reading strategies;
- A number of resources in the Indiana Learning Lab, specifically designed to help parents as they support their students in learning foundational literacy skills;
- And in the next couple of weeks, we look forward to announcing a new pilot program that will expand our current literacy focus to middle school students as well!
As we push forward, together, towards our statewide goal of 95 percent of students passing IREAD-3 by 2027, I cannot thank you enough for your leadership. Reading changes lives…your work changes lives…and I am honored to work alongside each of you!
