Excellence in Literacy Education Since 1982.
We share a dream that all schools are places where children and teachers are enthusiastic learners, and where the work of educators is the thoughtful, supportive interaction of a more experienced learner with less experienced learners from their infancy to old age. Being literate is a life-long engagement in a world of symbols that include print in books and on screens and walls and signs and everywhere. This process is marked not by frequent testing, but by the discovery and creation of meaning, allowing for the pace of each learner’s development.
