The Madison Metropolitan School District and University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Education hope a new task force can improve literacy instruction for teachers and outcomes for students.
The 14-member Early Literacy and Beyond Task Force announced Monday includes seven members from each entity who will âfocus on analyzing the most promising approaches to teaching reading and making recommendations to MMSD and to teacher education programs at UW-Madison toward the goals of improving reading outcomes and reducing achievement gaps,â according to the announcement.
MMSD superintendent Carlton Jenkins said in a press conference Monday the effort toward better literacy teaching was overdue.
