Description

Cathy Parker, a reading interventionist from Woodlawn Elementary School in Portland, tutors rising sixth grader AJ during a summer program at Ockley Green Middle School. Many rising middle schoolers, who were in kindergarten and first grade during the pandemic, are still below grade level proficiency in reading, but most literacy interventions are aimed at younger children.

Last Wednesday, 11-year-old Geniya sat in a corner of the library at Ockley Green Middle School in North Portland, where she’ll be a sixth grader this fall, intently concentrating on spelling the word “prince.”
