With Chicago Public Schools focused on CIWP alignment—supporting Tier 3 goals, MTSS, and literacy priorities—and a fast-approaching deadline to spend remaining funds before purchasing pauses, now is a critical time to strengthen intervention plans for the months ahead.
Intensive intervention should be a turning point—especially for students with the greatest needs.
Watch our 30-minute webinar with Dr. Julia Carlson from EPS Learning for an inside look at how structured, research-based intervention can drive stronger literacy outcomes for striving readers. Learn about a recent success story and how SPIRE Up moved the needle for struggling readers in elementary and middle school.
In this session, Julia will walk through SPIRE Up, a blended Structured Literacy solution designed for students in grades K–8+, and lead a live demo so you can see the program in action. You’ll explore how explicit instruction, built-in supports, and flexible implementation help educators deliver consistent, impactful intervention.
Whether you're supporting Tier 3 or special education, you’ll gain practical insights to strengthen your approach and better meet the needs of struggling readers.
