🤝 Community Power: The Heart of Change

In this course, we empower you, the parents, to rally and form a grassroots organization that can effectuate meaningful systemic change in how your local school district approaches reading education. Your efforts will not only benefit children with dyslexia but will also positively influence all students within the district.

It's crucial to understand that many teacher training colleges may overlook or even misunderstand dyslexia and the Science of Reading. This can lead to a lack of appropriate teaching methods in schools. It's essential to acknowledge that it's not uncommon for parents to go through stages of disbelief, frustration, and anger as they realize their district may be ill-equipped to support their child's learning needs. This emotional journey is valid and shared by many, but together with our community, we move forward to advocate for the best possible education for our children.

🌟 Step 4 Highlights:

• Featured Guest Speakers: We are privileged to have experts like Mindy Patrick, Carole Dorn-Bell, Gayle Beam, Michael Bucey, and Brett Tingley share their insights in the Step 4 videos.

• Inspiring Quotes:

  • “If you want to do something about poverty or the number of people who are homeless or the number of people in our prisons, teach every child to read. We know how to do it; we just aren’t doing it, and it’s time for parents to demand that this be taught to every child.” - Cameron James
  • “Wherever I have seen parents become active, that’s where change has happened. You rarely see districts reinvent themselves without parents being a catalyst for that.” - Michael Bucey
