The Literacy Programs at NCCAT are a perfect opportunity for school teams (including administrators and counselors) to cultivate their plans for addressing reading problems at their school. Our approach is unique in that you will have time to work collaboratively with our program faculty to develop strategies to implement reading programs in your school. We also cover successful strategies for engaging parents and suggest ways to locate funds (MONEY) and reading resources for your classroom. Our vision is to provide you with information about the best strategies you can use to help students become great readers!

North Carolina is committed to ensuring that all students who graduate are college and career ready reflected in part by their proficiency in reading. How do we accomplish this goal in a world that frequently offers reluctant readers limited resources, limited access, and limited expectations? Explore underlying factors-such as socioeconomic status, gender, culture, and the lack of access to community libraries-that contribute to poor reading habits. Learn how you can be part of the solution as we explore the most effective strategies for motivating reluctant readers. Work collaboratively with other educators and program faculty to identify needs and develop strategies to implement reading programs in your school and community. Return to your school with the courage to inspire and empower your colleagues, your community, and, most importantly, your students.
