Hill For Literacy

We are an education nonprofit that helps teachers better translate literacy research and assessment data into highly effective instruction that results in long-term success. Our methods are based on years of research and experience in the area of whole school literacy transformation. The HILL is neither a program, nor a curriculum; rather it is expertly tailored in-service education implemented to fit a particular school’s literacy profile. The HILL supports school leaders in organizing and enriching existing literacy structures. We start at the top and build leadership teams, provide a guided curriculum review process, train teachers and reading personnel, introduce evaluation methodologies, and provide support throughout the process to ensure success. HILL Online is a suite of applications that guides the installation, implementation, and sustainability of the HILL for Literacy Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) framework. HILL Online is comprised of three primary modules: Roadmap, Expertise, and Continuum. Roadmap supports our Needs Assessment process, Expertise provides professional learning and implementation support, and Continuum brings the HILL’s data meeting process online into an easy-to-use format.
