I went to a workshop last year and was very impressed with the Lexia reading program. It is computer based, geared to each students reading level, and not heavily reliant on staff for implemenation. They will come and do free prsentations to discuss their program and they also are connected with other programs (the names or which escape me) that may also be worth checking out. Let me know what you think.http://www.lexialearning.com/index.html --Scott Gardner

Hi Rachel, I would be happy to talk with you about our reading program. I think a face-to-face talk might be easier than email. A visit to Neuqua would be possible too. You could meet with me and my colleagues in reading too to talk about the program. Also, I drive right by Oswego East every day to and from Neuqua, so it would be relatively easy for me to stop in some time to meet with you there. And yes, I certainly do know Ed Howerton - he hired me at Neuqua years ago! If you see him, tell him I said hi. Let me know what will work best. Feel free to call me at 482-6297 as well. Thanks, Brian (NVHS)
