Welcome to Summer Literacy Institute 2024

Join the ESC of Central Ohio as educational stakeholders unite for joyful conversation and learning on June 11th, 2024 at Grandview Heights Middle and High School. National experts and keynote speakers Zaretta Hammond and American Cartoonist Jamar Nicholas lead our collaborative learning on Cultivating a Love of Learning. Along with literacy-related topics across the reading rope, new sessions will focus on literacy in art, equity and early childhood--in partnership with SproutFive.
