In Virginia Beach each elementary school has a full time reading specialist who
is serving as the Literacy Coach. Depending upon the school needs and
administration input, we meet remediation needs as well as coaching (lead
teacher) in Language Arts.
I feel very lucky indeed to be in a school where we make decisions based
upon school need (which may every few months). This year we have a lot a new
students to our school, and the remediation needs are great. As a result, I
spend probably 3/4's of my day in remediation. I have really enjoyed
reconnecting with students in need. I LOVE MY JOB!!!
