LITERACY SYSTEMS SUPPORT

Literacy efforts often feel fragmented—curriculum, instruction, assessment, and intervention operating in silos that make it difficult to meet goals or improve student outcomes. The root cause isn’t a lack of commitment—it’s a lack of coherence. Too often, educators see reading research and state standards as competing priorities, when in reality, the problem is a lack of clarity about how they connect. You deserve a literacy system that brings these elements together in a clear, aligned, and sustainable way.

Instructional Leaders in Plymouth-Canton Community Schools explore The Reading Comprehension Blueprint

At Linda Rhyne Consulting, we help districts assess current literacy practices, align them to both research and standards, apply targeted support across instructional supports, and adjust using real-time data. We approach this work holistically—supporting the people, processes, products, and culture needed to build lasting, high-impact literacy systems.

Literacy System Assessment

We begin by taking an objective look at your full literacy system—examining the people, processes, products, and culture that shape daily instruction.

This goes beyond reviewing curriculum materials and PD records. We conduct focus groups with teachers and leaders, visit classrooms during instruction, and listen closely to how your system functions in real time. Our goal is to understand not just what’s in place, but how it’s experienced.

The result is a comprehensive report that includes clear evidence, summary findings, and key takeaways. We highlight bright spots, name areas for consideration, and identify opportunities that can shape smarter, more aligned decisions moving forward.

Align Priorities with Action Planning

With a full picture of your current system, we facilitate a strategic planning process to align your literacy practices with reading research, state standards, and your district’s unique goals.​

This planning process is collaborative and tailored. Together, we identify priorities, unpack goals, and co-develop strategic actions that address both immediate needs and long-term vision. We ensure your instructional materials, assessments, professional learning, and support structures work together, not in silos.

You’ll leave this stage with a detailed, actionable roadmap that reflects your system’s story, respects your people, and provides a clear path forward for strong, research-aligned literacy instruction.

Apply the Plan with Implementation Support

Once your roadmap is in place, we partner with your team to put the plan into action. This stage is all about implementation with intention—translating strategy into day-to-day practice across schools and classrooms.

Support may include:

  • Targeted training and job-embedded professional development

  • 1:1 and small-group coaching or modeling

  • Grade level planning support

  • Classroom walkthroughs, or co-observation sessions

 

Our support always aligns to the priorities outlined in your plan. Whether we’re working with literacy leaders, instructional coaches, or teacher teams, our focus remains the same: helping people build confidence, capacity, and clarity.

We know how many demands compete for leaders’ attention. That’s why we help maintain momentum—anchoring daily work to the goals you set, while supporting your team in navigating real-time challenges. Our role is part coach, part thought-partner, part implementation guide.​

Partner with us to maintain a laser focus on actions that have impact.

Adapt and Refine for Sustainability

Change takes root when reflection is built into the system. We guide your team through structured opportunities to reflect on the implementation, analyze data outcomes, and evaluate the impact of your system-wide efforts to align reading research to state expectations.

We facilitate reflective sessions that focus on key questions:

  • Are we seeing the shifts we set out to make in teacher practice and student learning?

  • Where is the literacy system having the greatest impact?

  • Where do we need to adjust our supports, strategies, or expectations?

We re-assess the original goals and actions in your roadmap, looking at both quantitative data (such as reading assessments and progress monitoring) and qualitative insights from classroom observations, leadership feedback, and teacher voice. Based on what we learn, we may revise the plan or develop a long-term sustainability strategy to support continued growth.

This phase is where systems become self-sustaining. Our goal is to ensure you leave not just with stronger literacy results, but with routines, roles, and leadership capacity to carry the work forward with clarity and purpose.

Reflective sessions are included with implementation support.
