Registration is underway for Voyager Sopris Learning’s 2018 Literacy Symposium, a premier two-day online professional development event featuring leading experts in literacy education. With the goal of linking practitioners to the most current literacy research, the sessions will be Monday, July 9, and Tuesday, July 10.

Voyager Sopris Learning has launched a flexible, blended version of LETRS, its respected professional development course of study that prepares educators for the challenging work of teaching literacy.

In just one year, student reading success at Rapides Parish Schools has improved dramatically after the implementation of a new teacher professional development course of study, Voyager Sopris Learning's LETRS—to the extent that one district administrator refers to the results as "incredible.”

Alisa Dorman, with more than 20 years of experience in education, has been hired as its new Vice President of Research and Product Effectiveness. Dorman joins Voyager Sopris Learning from the Office of Literacy for the Colorado Department of Education, where, for the past three years, she was Executive Director and led the state’s early reading initiative.
