At our school, we are committed to helping every child become a confident, curious, and joyful reader. Our reading curriculum is grounded in the Science of Reading, giving students a strong foundation while developing the skills they need to become successful lifelong readers.

Research in the Science of Reading has helped educators better understand how children learn to read. Our curriculum provides teachers with the tools and resources to:

• Teach reading skills systematically and step-by-step
• Build strong foundations in phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension
• Use real-time data to identify student needs and provide targeted support
• Meet students where they are while helping them work toward grade-level goals
• Develop confident readers who understand, engage with, and enjoy what they read
• Through strong instruction, meaningful practice, and ongoing support, we help every student grow as a reader and discover the joy of reading.

 What Will This Look Like?

• Daily Reading Routines: Students will build strong decoding and comprehension skills through consistent, focused instruction.
• Exciting Books: Our classrooms will be filled with high-quality, diverse books that spark curiosity and reflect our students’ lives and experiences.
• K-2: Amplify CKLA 3rd Edition. 
• 3- 5: SAVVAS myView Literacy 2025
•  6-8: Prentice Hall Literature Textbook
• 6th: Tangerine and Holes
• 7th grade: The Outsiders, The Hobbit, and The Giver
• 8th grade: Animal Farm, Fahrenheit 451
• Targeted Support: Teachers will use frequent check-ins to tailor lessons and help all students — whether they need a little extra help or are ready for more advanced challenges. (W.I.N.N classes K through 8, Title 1 K through 5 if a student qualifies, resource support as needed)

How You Can Support at Home:

• Read with your child daily – even just 10–15 minutes makes a huge difference.
• Ask questions about books – Who are the characters? What happened first? Why do you think that happened?
• Celebrate progress – Learning to read is a journey, and every step is worth celebrating!

Our Goal

We want every student to feel success in reading and develop a lifelong love for books. With this new curriculum, we’re turning the page to an exciting new chapter in your child’s learning — and we’re so glad you’re part of the story.
