Teachers
As Readers
To encourage teachers
and administrators to stay current with quality children’s and adolescent
literature, teaching materials and professional issues the Shenandoah Valley
Reading Council has developed Teachers as Readers. Creating a group of colleagues that meets regularly and
discusses readings give educators a chance to grow intellectually by reading.
These groups also give opportunities for professional growth and sharing.
Sharing educational literature with colleagues not only harbors
professional knowledge but in turn sets the stage for reading growth in
students.
The Shenandoah Valley Reading Council would like to award two $100 incentives to Teachers as Readers groups. Any groups interested in starting or continuing a TAR group can complete a grant application by December 31. For form click in table above.

SVRC Celebrate Literacy Award
The Shenandoah Reading Council seeks to promote literacy in our community by improving the quality of reading instruction through the “Celebrate Literacy Award”.
