Introduction

This report is a comprehensive review of the Reading Horizons Elevate curriculum for Windham School District. Below, we describe the events and components of this review

On the morning of April 28, 2015, reviewers took part in a tour and debriefing with staff members from Ferguson and Holiday correctional facilities. The tour allowed the reviewers to capture the essence of the culture, classroom arrangement, and any limitations to delivery of the program.

That afternoon, reviewers conducted a debriefing with district academic specialists. Discussions included details of their support of assigned facilities and questions about reviewing a curriculum.
