Jennifer Morrison Director Office of School Transformation Donna Manning Team Leader School Improvement and Choice Candice Walsh Team Leader Reading and Early Literacy Penny Danielson CDEP Amy Smith CDEP Jamie Sanders CDEP New Hire CDEP Candice Walsh Manager, R2S Ruth Nodine R2S Pam Fields New Hire R2S

Eight Components of Act 284 Reading Plans (state, district, and school) Third grade retention Summer reading camps Interventions Literacy Competencies and Endorsements Early Learning and Literacy (CDEP) Teacher preparation Reading coaches

What will make R2S work? Comprehensive Cohesiveness of implementation and among components of the law Focus on outcomes and data Ability to provided additional, out-of-box support Commitment to scaled-up, no holds barred implementation Commitment from all stakeholders in SC

Communication Original intent was to make certain coaches and teachers received information ground up through literacy specialists and R2S liaisons. Changed order at request of districts. All official communication is now in pdf format on SCDE letterhead.

R2S Advisory Group Replaces Reading Panel originally in legislation. Invitation went statewide on 11/4/2014. Online application was open until 11/19/2014. We are looking for 20 to 25 diverse, knowledgeable stakeholders who are committed to the improvement of student literacy in South Carolina. Rubric will be used to select.

1 – Reading Plans State plan will be introduced in December and finalized by February 2015. District plans = Fall 2015 School plans = Fall 2016 All plans will need to be approved using SCDE- provided rubric. EIA reading funds will be tied to approval.

2 – Third Grade Retention Third grade retention does not begin until 2017-18. The SCDE is aware of research around retention. Many other components will be in place by 2017-18, reducing the number of students who might be required to be retained.

3 – Summer Reading Camps Begin Summer 2015. Required for any third grader who is not reading proficiently in at the end of the third nine weeks Guidance to districts will be provided in in January 2015. The SCDE is working to link this component with the SC Summer Reading Program.

4 – Reading Interventions Must be in place 2014-15. The OST is collaborating with the Office of Special Education Services to establish support and guidance around interventions, including Response to Intervention. We are focused on classroom-based interventions and quality of interventionists. “Light” guidance will be issued with follow-up in 2015-16.

5 – Literacy Competencies In August 2014, the SCDE released the South Carolina Literacy Competencies that describe what teachers need to know and be able to do in regard to reading and writing. Three sets of SC Literacy Competencies are found on the R2S website. These form the foundation for new in-service and pre-service coursework for all educators.

5 – Read to Succeed Endorsements R2S Teacher R2S Requirement (Instructional) R2S Requirement (Non-Instructional) R2S Coach R2S endorsements cannot be added to SC licenses until after endorsement regulations have been changed and then revised. Goal = Fall 2015 The endorsements do not supersede add-on certifications or master’s degrees. Source: SCDE, 2014, Guidelines for Read to Succeed Endorsements

Add-Ons and Master’s Degrees Educators earning a Literacy Teacher or Literacy Specialist add-on area of certification will automatically have the R2S Teacher endorsement added to their licenses. Educators earning a master’s in Reading or Literacy will automatically have the R2S Teacher endorsement added to their licenses. The SCDE is currently discussing feasibility and procedures for grandfathering in licenses with the add-on or master’s added prior to Fall 2015.
