TEXAS READING ACADEMY All SIS teachers (grades 3-5 - including principals, special education teachers, Science, Social Studies and Math teachers) have completed and passed all requirements for the Texas Reading Academy. This is an intense, 11-month course which is required for all Texas teachers and principals, grades K-3. However, SISD required all teachers and principals in Pre-K-5th grade and K-12 Special Education teachers. Participants must complete the following and meet passing expectations: 60 hours of in-person learning, pass three artifacts that were Canvas-graded (Canvas is an online system) and two artifacts that were graded by two TEA-moderated graders. They have to completed four observations and coaching sessions with Kristen Nester, SISD’s Texas Reading Academy Cohort Leader. Additionally, they must complete pre-tests and post-tests for each of the 12 modules in the academy.
