Parent Resources – Creating Reading Routines at Home

Welcome to our reading resource page for parents. The Coates Home-School Compact states that parents are committed to establishing an at-home reading routine and that our staff is committed to supporting these endeavors. Whether your child is struggling with reading or is reading well beyond grade level, we want to equip you with a better understanding of literacy and provide a plan to grow your child’s reading skills.
