Can other states replicate Alabama's reading success?
Veteran education journalist @LianaLoewus visited six elementary schools and interviewed dozens of educators and policymakers to find out what's working.
See what she learned.

One thing I've been doing this summer is making more time to read and learn about spelling. And this book has been sitting on my patio table recently. ☀️
This month on the podcast we're diving into spelling. Check out what's in store:

One of the last things we did at our back-to-school faculty meeting. ❤️
Everyone picked a random day this school year and scheduled an email to our entire staff — a reminder to take care of our mental health, prioritize the people we love, and remember that there is life outside of school, too.
I have no idea when they’re coming or what they’ll say. I just hope they show up on the days we need them most. ❤️

If you’re doing a little reflecting or planning this summer, this listening guide can help you organize your thinking around phonemic awareness.
It’s not just a list of episodes. It’s a way to notice patterns and connect ideas across conversations.

Summer is coming, schools are closing, and the 2026 Summer Reading Challenge is about to begin. Governor Kay Ivey is encouraging Alabama students entering kindergarten through eighth grade to take part in the annual challenge while learning more about the nation’s history ahead of America’s 250th birthday celebration.
“As we prepare to celebrate America’s 250th birthday, there is no better time for Alabama students to learn more about the people, principles, and stories that shaped the greatest nation on Earth,” @GovernorKayIvey said. “Summer is a time for family, fun, and Alabama sunshine, but it is also a wonderful opportunity for our students to keep learning and dreaming big for their future and our country’s future.”
