Lit Academy Group

Lit Academy is a two-day learning event that will provide literacy teams with intensive, collaborative, and application-based workgroup sessions focused on implementing the science of reading literacy plans.
With innovative sessions geared toward evidence-based literacy instruction, collaborative, hands-on learning, and year-long engagement from The Center, educators will have the opportunity to learn ways in which they can apply these strategies to their schools’ curricula. Our content is focused on the Science of Reading, Interventions, CORE instruction with your curriculum, Data Analysis and so much more!

              • Principals
              • Literacy Coaches
              • Mentor Teachers
              • Curriculum & Instruction Leads

              • Master Teachers

Teams will attend focused sessions that will lend themselves to actionable planning, implementing an effective literacy coach program, family literacy engagement, and applying new knowledge toward building a robust literacy plan. Workgroup sessions will engage participants with data review, curriculum-specific instructional guidance, literacy plan review, and refinement.

As a participant in the 2023 Lit Academy Cohort 3.0, teams will be provided additional year-long engagement support opportunities that are in addition to the in-person 2-day intensive event. The Center will host quarterly virtual support meetings and participants will receive 1-year access to The Center’s Canvas site to receive Lit Academy resources, training videos, recordings of virtual meetings, and engage in a cohort discussion board.

The Center for Literacy & Learning is excited to announce that we will offer Lit Academy 3.0 to school systems across America. As a Louisiana-based national non-profit focused on literacy, our professional training and support help advance evidence-based best practices for teaching and learning.
