Secondary Literacy

As secondary teachers we face the daunting task of educating the youth of today. The number of proficient readers has dwindled from years past. Many students do not come to us with the reading skills necessary for them to participate effectively in our classrooms, let alone be productive educated members of society. All teachers who teach in 6-12 schools are responsible for teaching students to read, write and think to the best of their ability. A powerful literacy program in secondary schools needs to have qualified teaching professionals who are willing to develop and change along with their students.

 

About Us

Many counties around the United States have begun offering reading programs in secondary schools. The focus on literacy, especially in high schools, has prompted us to create a site, which is both useful and informative for secondary teachers specifically. The information provided will be designed to help secondary teachers chill wo in their classrooms as well as provide a resource of valuable information for their own professional development.

The teacher forum is a place, which will provide you with valuable insight from other professionals around the country. Please join in the discussion and share your wisdom with other professionals who care about secondary student literacy success.
