Reading well means learning to think critically, understand new perspectives, and discover the world around us.Strengthening literacy skills in the classroom is essential to fostering meaningful learning and supporting the holistic development of every student.

With this commitment in mind, our Academic Director, Mónica García de Luca, and our Bilingualism Consultant, Gabriela Sosa de Gil, are attending the 10th Annual Conference of The Reading League in Chicago, Illinois, from September 30 to October 2.

This international gathering brings together more than 2,500 educators and over 85 experts to explore the science of reading, educational research, and evidence-aligned instructional practices. It offers a valuable opportunity for professional development, allowing educators to deepen their understanding of how students learn to read and discover effective strategies to strengthen reading comprehension and essential learning skills.

Learning, Sharing, and Innovating in the Classroom

Participating in international conferences like this one allows our academic team to expand its knowledge, exchange experiences, and explore the latest developments shaping literacy education.

The science of reading provides valuable insights into how students develop reading skills and how educators can support them throughout each stage of their learning journey. Applying this knowledge in the classroom helps enrich teaching strategies and respond more effectively to students’ individual learning needs.

At Red de Colegios Semper Altius, we believe that continuous professional development is essential to academic excellence. That is why we remain committed to learning, embracing evidence-based practices, and strengthening teaching and learning processes through a holistic educational approach.

Reading to Understand, Think, and Discover

Reading goes beyond recognizing words. It enables students to interpret information, develop critical thinking skills, expand their knowledge, and explore new possibilities.

Continuing to learn about effective reading instruction is a way to open new opportunities for every student to develop their potential and become an active participant in their own learning journey.

Because when we strengthen reading skills, we also nurture the ability to understand, question, imagine, and transform the world.

At Red de Colegios Semper Altius, we continue learning and growing to bring new perspectives and meaningful learning opportunities into our classrooms.
