Ensuring All Students Learn to Read: Where We Go from Here
For far too long, New York City Public Schools has failed to meet the critical charge of ensuring all students learn to read. While the City has begun to take steps to address this challenge, meaningful change takes time, and literacy must remain a top education priority for the next Mayoral administration. To sustain and build upon the work done thus far, New York City should develop a robust system of intensive interventions and support for students across all grade levels; provide teachers with ongoing coaching and professional learning in the science of reading; and partner with families to support literacy learning.
