Hosted by Drexel University's School of Education with support from the ALLIED Hub, we invite you to join us for the Science of Reading Day Summit at Drexel University - an engaging morning of professional learning, collaboration, and connection for educators, families, and others committed to improving literacy outcomes for children.

Designed to bring together the many people who play a role in helping children become successful readers, the Summit will connect research and evidence with real-world practice through expert perspectives, educator-led conversations, and opportunities to learn from one another.

Come ready to connect, share, and leave with new ideas you can put into practice.
