INNOVATIVE
READING

READING FOR ALL SKILL LEVELS.

This out-of-school-time (OST) program is designed to meaningfully engage middle school students in raising their reading level by using the Science of Reading.

 

The goal is to raise reading levels by 1-2 years by supplementing what students are learning during the school day with an individualized curriculum that is multi-tiered for students of all skill levels, and using books that are high engagement/low level that connect to the interests of middle school students.

 

Students benefit from improved reading, comprehension, critical thinking, and writing skills. Our proven results are foundational to each student’s future success in academics and beyond the classroom.

"One student in my class did almost no work throughout the school year, and he is now regularly participating. This is huge! He has answers to questions and is getting them correct ... I am not going to give up on these students. They deserve everything that kids have in the next town over."​
