We believe every child deserves a teacher trained in how the brain learns to read. The Lowcountry Literacy Project equips schools with high-impact professional training grounded in the science of reading, empowering educators with the knowledge, tools, and strategies needed to strengthen literacy instruction and improve student outcomes across the classroom.

Interested in Becoming a Partner School?

Our flagship model is designed for schools ready to commit to systemic change. Partner schools receive a multi-year implementation plan that includes:

  • In-depth Orton-Gillingham Classroom Educator training

  • Embedded coaching and support for general education, intervention, and special education staff

  • Data review and instructional planning with grade-level teams

  • Ongoing alignment with school-based goals and district initiatives

Our partnership is more than a training—it’s a strategic investment in instructional excellence. Interested schools must demonstrate strong leadership commitment and schedule alignment to support full implementation.

School-Wide Professional Development Modules

We offer flexible professional development workshops that introduce core structured literacy concepts to larger school teams. These sessions are ideal for schools that are not currently in the full partner model but want to deepen staff understanding and create momentum around effective reading instruction.

Modules can include:

  • A Dyslexia Simulation
  • Executive Functioning and ADHD
  • Multisensory Teaching
  • Phonology
  • Phonemic Awareness
  • Early Literacy
  • Socratic Questioning and Error Repair
  • Multisensory Grammar
  • Morphology
  • Syllable Division (and how to teach it)

Transformational Teaching Moments:

“A 5th-grade teacher stopped me today to share how she already used some of the information/data presented in the professional development to help drive her instruction in class. Upon reflection, she realized that most of her day was spent lecturing and talking. Today, she worked to engage the Kinesthetic and Tactile instead of so much Visual and Auditory. She even brought in a couple of jump ropes from home for kids to use when they need to “fill their tank”. Lowcountry Literacy, thank you so much for funding these PD sessions.”
