Join the Cobb Chamber’s Cobb Executive Women (CEW) on Friday, September 9 for CEW’s September Luncheon as KSU Professors Megan Adams and Dr. Sanjuana Rodriguez sit down to discuss literacy trends post-pandemic and how community engagement can support students.
Emerging research on the impacts of COVID-19 on literacy indicates widening achievement gaps. For all students, additional literacy interventions are needed during the school year and during the summer months. For students without adequate resources in the school, home, or community, these needs are exacerbated. Adams and Dr. Rodriguez will describe the work KSU is doing in schools and how the community can assist.
Attendees are encouraged to donate books for the Academy for Language and Literacy and can purchase directly from the book list at https://amzn.to/3PJrnLs.
Registration is open until August 9 at https://bit.ly/3QUO54E. The luncheon begins at 11:30 a.m. at the Cobb Chamber and is sponsored by Yearlong Presenting Sponsor, Northside Hospital, and Program Sponsor, Gas South. Lunch will be provided by Copeland’s of New Orleans.
