To improve struggling readers’ skills, Ms. Boam will lead the “Reading Teachers” initiative at Desert Rose High School. Educators will collaborate on implementing explicit phonics instruction, high interest literature, field trips, and training on focus and memory. Students, particularly those with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, will learn to focus and maintain continuity with tasks.
