District Administration – Matt Zalaznick
“Adding more reading time to the school day—at the expense of subjects such as social studies and science—will not help struggling readers make progress. In fact, it’s the opposite of what these students need, says Holly Lane, an associate professor of special education at the University of Florida. Lane is currently working to improve reading instruction in Florida’s Title I elementary schools where many students are not meeting reading standards. In her keynote at the next District Administration Leadership Institute® CAO Summit on March 18-20 in Dallas, Lane will discuss how educators can move beyond the time misconception to better develop students’ reading skills.” (more)
