It was great to see evidence-based instruction in action in 2nd and 3rd grade classrooms while visiting Delaware Community School District’s (@wdccsd) Lambert Elementary School this week. Director McKenzie Snow and Chief of Staff John Elkin met with Superintendent Jen Vance, Principal Rudi Hameister, Director of Student Services Matt O’Loughlin and teachers to learn more about the district’s strong focus on evidence-based literacy instruction aligned to the science of reading. The district has made literacy instruction a top priority by participating in and empowering each and every teacher with LETRS professional development to support their literacy and language expertise in the science of reading. All elementary teachers have now completed LETRS with the goal of strengthening students’ early literacy skills, improving reading proficiency and narrowing achievement gaps for students. #LiteracyChangesLivesIA #BridgingTheGapIA

Director McKenzie Snow, CTE Bureau Chief Cale Hutchings, Administrative Consultant Heather Meissen and team members from across the Department of Education helped kick off the Iowa Work-Based Learning Coordinators Conference with President Amy ‘Bozz’ Bossard yesterday in Des Moines. Director Snow shared how together, we are empowering all students with multiple pathways to postsecondary success through work-based learning and industry-recognized credential attainment. Last year 98% of Iowa’s school districts offered at least one sustained work-based learning experience and more than 45% of high school students from the graduating class of 2025 participated in at least one work-based learning experience while in high school. That is up nearly 20 percentage points with an over 76% rate of increase over the last two years! Please help us thank Iowa’s amazing work-based learning coordinators, who connect the classroom to the workplace impacting their students’ lives and futures! #ChooseYourPathwayIA #WorkBasedLearning
