Sturgeon Bay School District welcomes literacy consultant

Sturgeon Bay School District will host Dr. Danielle Thompson from Transformative Reading Group next month to help address the needs of its current reading curriculum. Hailing from Bozeman, Montana, Thompson has experience working with pre-K, elementary, and middle school students in at-risk environments from Alaska to Mississippi to Montana. She has also contributed to guidance and assessments for Montana students suffering from dyslexia.  Middle School Reading Specialist Jeanne Schopf says not all teachers have all the skills needed to teach literacy to a wide variety of learners. The hope is Thompson can help do just that.

Thompson will be conducting her work March 1st, 2nd, and 3rd as she performs an assessment of the district’s students and staff. With that information, she will create new guidance and strategies for teachers moving forward. She will also be coming back in the fall to follow-up on some of the changes that may need to be made and also offering coaching for teachers.
