Elementary Reading

Instructor: Jaime Porter   
 
My purpose as a Curriculum lead is to provide on-going communication with teachers as well as a place for sharing resources/strategies and important items for discussion. We will work to continuously improve our K-5 Reading Curriculum document to ensure all students are receiving high quality reading instruction in our district.
