=Increasing Student Literacy Competitive Grants =

The FY10 Title II, Part D Increasing Student Literacy Competitive Grants are designed to create a model that will build capacity for using technology to improve literacy while meeting the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) that can be replicated throughout the state. Through this grant, 20 schools (5 classrooms per school) will be provided with software and technology equipment supporting literacy. Participating students will use software that leverages the Lexile Framework® to differentiate foundational reading and writing practice. Students will also work collaboratively to research and use the writing process to create multi-media rich video reports/presentations (digital storytelling) to synthesize and apply interdisciplinary information using digital media.

Decatur County School System (Bainbridge High School) has received this Grant!
