Arkansas LEARNS with HILL for Literacy
Helping schools translate research into practice since 2001
HILL For Literacy is a Qualified Vendor with the Arkansas Division of Elementary and Secondary Education for their Professional Learning Grants. If your district is applying, we’d love to talk with you about how the HILL can help your schools in Foundational Literacy/Science of Reading and Strengthening Instructional Quality.
HILL for Literacy (or the HILL) is a tech-enabled literacy consultancy whose work is grounded in 40+ years of research. We’re experts in both the science of reading and the science of implementation. We can help your school district take the insights from that research and put it into practice in your classrooms.
When we partner with a school, we organize and enrich the existing literacy elements. We provide customized training, building on the strengths and experience of the teachers and integrating the literacy efforts classroom by classroom. To make lasting change, the whole system needs to participate in designing goals and remain involved in the improvement efforts. We systematically facilitate this effort.
