Empowering Leaders' Symposium 2026

Move beyond surface-level engagement to identify what truly matters in literacy instruction. This session focuses on how to recognize evidence of strong teaching and learning during classroom visits, with an emphasis on what students are reading, writing, and thinking across foundational skills, comprehension, and small group instruction. Participants will leave with clear, actionable look-fors to guide feedback, calibrate expectations, and support consistent, high-quality literacy instruction across classrooms.
