With 67 percent of 4th graders reading below grade level, schools need interventions that really work. Join Ignite Reading CEO Jessica Sliwerski in conversation with district and school leaders using high-dosage, one-to-one virtual tutoring to successfully close student decoding gaps at scale.

Panelists including the Superintendent of Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools, Assistant Director of Curriculum and Instruction at Revere Public Schools, and CEO of Alpha Public Schools will share how tutoring fits into their literacy ecosystems to close foundational reading skills gaps for students who need extra support—getting results where other reading interventions didn’t.

Key takeaways:

  • Gain valuable insights into the logistics of implementing tutoring during the school day
  • Evaluate strategies for securing staff buy-in
  • Learn tips for supporting teachers
  • Review program data teachers use to support differentiated instruction in their classrooms and the incredible gains students have made
