The Campaign for Grade-Level Reading
GLR Week 2020 marked a turning point for the Campaign for Grade-Level Reading. Unable to hold an in-person conference in Washington, DC, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we seized the opportunity to rethink, refocus and transform these five days into “GLR Learning Tuesdays on overdrive.” GLR Week 2020 became a Networkwide series of events and activities lifting up work, priorities, and progress across the country around shared interests in ensuring early school success; slowing, stopping, and reversing learning loss; and embracing parents as essential partners. This “lemons to lemonade” moment resulted in found energy and good news at a time when both are in short supply. The feedback has been uniformly positive. The buzz continues past GLR Week. And there is little doubt that this new format will drive our planning for GLR Week 2021.
