About the Advisory Council
The Wisconsin State Superintendent’s Reading Advisory Council is a diverse group of Wisconsin community members committed to strengthening literacy learning in Wisconsin’s schools. By strengthening literacy learning, we foster students’ use of reading to understand themselves and others, to acquire knowledge, and to participate in a democratic society. Through on-going virtual meetings, the State Superintendent’s Reading Advisory Council will learn together and share information and recommendations with DPI. The Reading Advisory Council will focus on comprehensive literacy, birth through grade 12.

Council Learning: Early Literacy-Specific and Asset-Based Family Engagement
In 2022, the Council engaged in learning about early literacy-specific and asset-based family engagement. The Council then provided input on learning modules designed for use by teams serving 4K through grade 2.
An initial draft of the modules is available. During 2022 - 2023, select school teams with participate in work using the modules. For 2023 - 2024, the modules will be revised to include Wisconsin-specific examples and testimonials.
