"We were seeking an objective evaluation of the current state. The Literacy Center was outstanding at not only capturing the level we were at with each of the "look-fors," but equally as helpful was the narrative piece of feedback. To be able to compare the evidence/data of the "look-fors" with what students and teachers actually said was invaluable for us as we try to determine our next steps. Most importantly, our trust and confidence in the Literacy Center's Consultants' perspectives are unquestionable. Their backgrounds as educators, administrators, and literacy coaches allow them to truly see all sides of an audit. We are certainly grateful to have that as we navigate our next steps working with and supporting staff."

"Spending time analyzing our own district's data was powerful. The scaffolded approach of starting with raw data and ending up at a tiered three-year plan worked wonderfully. I look forward to continuing this work with our district's team."
