We are pleased to announce that the reading language arts team at TEA is implementing an initiative to expand information-sharing and engagement with reading language arts stakeholders across the state. Stakeholders include parents, teachers, administrators, staff members, local board members, and the general public.
It is our hope that these virtual, online meetings will allow us to connect with stakeholders to learn more about their needs and to share relevant and timely information with them. Each session will have a different informational focus related to reading language arts.
