Literacy Network 2026-2027

Professional Development FOR Reading Specialists, WITH Reading Specialists, BY Reading Specialists!

The CESA 1 Literacy Network is a professional learning community with a mission to discuss, collaborate, and support one another as we deepen our understanding of high impact instructional practices and relevant staff development for our teachers.

Participants enjoy the opportunity to:

• Network with other reading specialists and literacy leaders throughout the school year.
• Explore and reflect on current, high impact literacy instruction research, including new research on the science of reading.
• Engage in collegial conversations with literacy coaches from other districts.
• Participate in professional readings to expand knowledge around best practices and literacy research.

Audience: Reading Teachers, Reading Specialists, Coaches, and Literacy Leaders

Note: This network is a community that works best with regular attendance at each session - rotating/sharing seats is not recommended.
