Leadership for Literacy Grant Evaluation Report

The Leadership for Literacy Grant, competitively awarded to Minnesota School District 622, has had a goal of building leadership for literacy through the design and implementation of professional learning communities. Grant resources provided for a set of activities, which were designed to foster a collaborative culture in the district among teachers and staff.
The objective of the CAREI research team was two-fold: to determine the extent to which grant activities promoted professional learning communities and, to identify strengths and weaknesses of these activities from the perspective of the participants.
