Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, educators face an unprecedented challenge: how to close the learning gaps created by months of school closures and uneven access to virtual learning opportunities? In this breakout, Mike Mattos will discuss specific steps that schools can take to create a highly effective, multitiered system of supports to target learning gaps using the PLC at Work® process.

Despite our best efforts, progress remains elusive with traditional remediation. It's time to rethink the approach. This webinar explores acceleration—a proactive, strengths-based model that empowers all students to achieve at or above grade level. This isn't just about closing gaps; it's about building a future where every student thrives.

What if we could unlock the potential for every child to become a strong, confident reader? Decades of research show us how—yet many classrooms still rely on outdated practices that leave too many students behind. In this powerful session, George Georgiou and Greg Kushnir, authors of Better Together: Blending the Science of Reading and Professional Learning Communities at Work®, will unpack the science of reading—what it is, why it matters, and how it can transform instruction. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of how students actually learn to read and practical steps schools can take to bring this research to life. Together, we can turn the promise of literacy for all into a reality.
