Project
CORE Learning is a provider of structured literacy professional learning for educators. This grant supports its design, facilitation, and provision of professional learning sessions, virtual and in-person coaching sessions, and project management to the Maryland State Department of Education in support of MSDE’s Academic Excellence Program Pilot. The Pilot will deploy state instructional coaches in elementary schools within Maryland’s Prince George’s County to provide job-embedded support aligned with the science of reading, establish sustainable coaching and professional learning structures, and strengthen educator and teacher-leader efficacy, with the goal of ultimately increasing K-3 literacy proficiency rates.
