Last year, 97% of Redwood Literacy's Rogers Park students outpaced their peers in reading growth. 🎉 For the last 6 years, Redwood’s Rogers Park location has provided effective, fun reading & writing tutoring to students across Chicago using the Wilson Reading System® and Writing Our World™. *Data collected through the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills - 8th Edition (DIBELS-8) assessment. The growth rate was calculated from the beginning to the end of the school year and compared to national norms. Huge shoutout to Samantha "Sammi" Oberman, Site Manager at Rogers Park and the whole team for their incredible work! #WilsonReadingSytem #DIBELS #studentdata https://lnkd.in/gFg6rk_h
