Evidence-based reading practices often fail to account for the unique challenges of secondary schools, where foundational gaps persist even as students are expected to tackle complex texts. This third edWebinar of the 2026 Sadlier Phonics Institute equips school leaders, content area teachers, and literacy specialists with a strategic framework for implementing a coherent Science of Reading model in secondary grades. Explore how to integrate disciplinary literacy with targeted foundational skill instruction and drive a schoolwide shift that addresses both the instructional “what” and the systemic “how.”

Key Takeaways:

• Gain a roadmap for unifying secondary instruction around a Science of Reading and Disciplinary Literacy philosophy, across all content areas, to prevent fragmented, department-by-department approaches.
• Build capacity among secondary teachers to diagnose and address persistent foundational deficits in older students, while applying culturally responsive strategies grounded in critical language awareness and sociocultural understanding.
• Move beyond traditional standardized assessments to implement valid, equitable measures that accurately identify and serve students reading two or more years below grade level.

This edWebinar will be of interest to elementary and middle school teachers, school leaders, and district leaders.

This edWebinar is part of the 2026 Sadlier Phonics Institute.
