FREE AUDIT
Is your literacy data reaching families?
The Literacy and Family Engagement Audit is a free 60–90 minute protocol for district leadership teams to assess how well your literacy communication reaches families. It also helps identify exactly where to focus next.
Use this protocol with your team to:
- Audit what literacy updates your district is sending families
- Check whether communication is consistent, individualized, and available in families’ home languages across schools
- Understand what families actually know about their child’s reading level
- Identify where your communication strategy holds up, or breaks down, by grade-band
- Walk away with one clear action to take in the next 30 days
Research consistently demonstrates that the home literacy environment plays a critical role in shaping children’s early language, reading, and writing development. Educators and families have the shared power to create rich, meaningful literacy experiences across both home and school settings.
