MARYLAND– The Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) is seeking public feedback on proposed literacy program standards. 

Still in the draft stages, the Draft Literacy Policy establishes a framework for teacher roles, preparation and support; literacy screening, reading instruction and outcome standards, and a student reading improvement plan. 

Educators, families and community members are encouraged to provide feedback through a MSDE survey available online until July 19. The proposed policy will also be discussed at a State Board of Education meeting July 23.
