West Stafford School

Working through both individual and small-group instruction, our reading team is committed to improving every aspect of your child's reading.

Our ultimate goal is to help every West Stafford student grow a genuine love of reading and become a life-long reader. We feel fortunate that our reading department not only works with children within their classrooms, but we also provide interventions where children come to the reading room. Here they may gain additional Fundations practice or attend a group using Leveled Literacy Intervention texts and strategies.

Beyond these targeted interventions, we are proud to promote literacy school-wide, encouraging involvement:

• The Governor's Summer Reading Challenge
• The Stafford Public Library's Summer Reading Program
• Reading at Home incentive program
• Dr. Seuss-themed activities during Read Across America
• Jumpstart: Read for the Record
• Drop Everything and Read Day
• WSS "Dress as Your Favorite Book Character" day

Literacy program questions may be directed to our Reading Teacher.
