What is "The Network"?
The Network Learning Community is so much more than just a monthly obligation. The Network a growing community of parents, educators, and community members who are passionate about making real change in literacy education.
The Network is a place where everyone - from grandmas to volunteer firefighters to your favorite local barista - can come together, support each other with ideas and resources, and unpack the latest research in literacy education.
Every voice matters and every connection brings us one step closer to creating a brighter, more literacy-rich future for all Vermonters.
