Sign Up for Parent Leader Network
Thank you for your interest in the Parent Leader Network" Books, Brunch, and Belonging". WAKE Up and Read uniquely engages families about how to support the learning and development of their children at home. We provide a space to share and support each other navigating the journey of raising literate and well prepared young learners to succeed in school and life. Through this network parents and caregivers have the opportunity to experience literacy models based on the science of reading from foundational stages to comprehension and have discussions to help stay abreast of the latest research, data, and strategies around literacy. Please join us on the 2nd Saturday of each month from 10:00am-12:30pm. Sessions are for children ages 3-12 and brunch are provided. Children and adults will be learning in separate groups.
