Introducing K3 Literacy
New Webpage Highlights K-3 Literacy Initiatives
The Springdale Public School District is dedicated to literacy through investments in our teachers, parent collaboration, and community partnerships. Our district's number one Big Audacious Goal is for each child to be on or above grade level in reading every year as measured by the state summative assessment. This initiative provides accessible information to parents concerning the benefits of our literacy program and how they can get involved in their child's literacy development.
