Consortium on Reading Excellence “Designing, implementing and sustaining an effective reading program is everybody's business. It requires well-designed and ongoing professional development to equip educators with the knowledge base they need for effective reading instruction; it requires the selection of appropriate tools that are tightly linked to the research, and, finally, it requires support systems initiated by the local leadership to ensure smooth implementations and enduring effects.”
