A School Leader’s Guide to Building Stronger Literacy Systems
Across the country, districts are under increasing pressure to improve literacy outcomes—yet many continue to see stalled progress. Despite ongoing efforts, gaps in implementation, educator preparation, and system alignment prevent meaningful, sustained improvement.
This guide helps district leaders move from fragmented efforts to a clear, systemwide literacy strategy. You’ll learn how to:
- Identify what’s working—and where critical gaps exist—across your literacy system
- Evaluate five key domains: leadership, curriculum, instruction, professional learning, and assessment
- Use multiple sources of evidence to uncover root causes behind literacy outcomes
- Strengthen implementation through aligned practices, consistent expectations, and targeted support
- Build a practical, prioritized roadmap for improving reading outcomes across all grade levels
