The Role of the Reading Specialist

     There are two main roles of the reading specialist as outlined by 
Virginia Beach Schools.
  
      First, reading specialists provide instruction for students throughout 
the school to improve reading achievement.  This instruction may involve a 
whole class or a small group of students. Lessons are designed to build 
student's usage of reading strategies while promoting fluency and 
comprehension. 

     Second, the reading specialists serve as a resource for students, 
parents, teachers, and administration.  This website has been created to 
help link parents to helpful reading links.  In addition, the reading 
specialists work closely with the teachers to help identify students who 
need further support and or testing.  The goal is to help all students 
become successful readers.
