In a recent discussion regarding the upcoming 2025 elections, Erika Sieh, a candidate for the Oswego District 308 Board of Education, expressed her strong desire to reinstate literacy specialists within the district. Sieh highlighted the importance of these specialists in supporting students' reading and writing skills, which are crucial for academic success.
She noted that the elimination of these positions several years ago, due to budget constraints, has negatively impacted the district's ability to provide targeted literacy support. According to Sieh, restoring these roles would not only enhance student learning but also address the diverse needs of learners in the community.
Sieh's commitment to improving literacy education reflects her broader vision for the district, where every student has access to the resources necessary for their academic growth. As the election approaches, her proposals are likely to resonate with parents and educators who prioritize effective literacy programs in schools.
