High Dosage Tutoring: A High-Impact Literacy Strategy

Wednesday, 12/11 from 1-2pm

An early literacy high dosage tutoring program for Massachusetts first graders that are behind in their reading skills is showing impressive gains in getting students on grade level. The program is a critical component of a multi-pronged approach to improving reading outcomes and, if access is expanded, could close achievement gaps and dramatically improve third grade reading outcomes statewide.

Join us to learn about the program and how it works. Hear from Johns Hopkins University about their analysis of program outcomes and from district, school, and classroom leaders about their experience with the program. Acting state education Commissioner Russell Johnston will offer closing remarks. Register today.
