What are some of the most harmful phrases in education? I’ll go first: “But we’ve always done it this way.”
Replacing F&P BAS as the K-2 district assessment was 🎯 decision by SFUSD for several reasons. Advocates have said for a long time that BAS is a huge resource-suck. Here’s research backing us up:
Great new study out comparing cost-effectiveness of 3 Rdng Screeners: STAR, F&P BAS, & Acadience. The BAS was so time intensive/ student & so much poorer in accuracy that the opportunity cost of just administering BAS was 2 to 3 times higher than other assessments

Third grade students (target group / priority goal) experienced HUGE growth in reading @PaloAltoUnified due to focused and strategic efforts implemented by powerful teachers and dedicated support positions. It IS possible and there IS a playbook to follow.
Palo Alto set goals for #earlyliteracy and they are MEETING THEM. San Francisco, get to work! Kids can’t wait! @SFParents @read4berkeley @DDCalifornia @FulcrumLiteracy @jennyhlam @KJWinEducation
No finish line for #equity or #earlyliteracy @PaloAltoUnified There will be a day when our chart will read "STUDENTS" because the other descriptors will no longer be a predictor of outcomes. Right direction... not done!
A small but positive development in the Massachusetts budget - @maura_healey vetoed the Reading Recovery earmark! Great call. More & more #MaEdu embraces early literacy instruction supported by the evidence.
Anita Archer brilliantly underscores that reading routines are not boring…they are essential. Children learn to know what they are doing through disciplined, high yield routines. #SoR #dyslexia @NeuhausEdCtr @MontanaEducation&LiteracyInstitute
