(Example roles include but are not limited to literacy coach, mentor teacher, grade level chair or administrator.) The purpose of the program is to prepare K-5 school- and district-based applicants to support teachers, paraprofessionals, and administrators in implementing literacy best practices grounded in the Science of Reading.
