Spotlight on Early Literacy

On December 4, 2020, Learning Ally will host its first, "Spotlight on Early Literacy," a virtual professional development conference for educators working with all children who are emerging readers.

 

The organization's mission is to address America's literacy problem especially amongst its vulnerable populations -- students with low reading readiness, English Language Learners, and those with uncovered reading deficits. Learning Ally provides a suite of literacy solutions ranging from early literacy through later literacy, with professional learning to support educators, day to day practitioners and champions for students.

 

A special fireside chat with Andre Agassi, Tennis Pro and Founder of the Andre Agassi Education Foundation is planned. Mr. Agassi will share why literacy is so important to him and the learnings from his Foundation in helping more schools evoke positive and systemic improvements in literacy.
