Lynnfield Public Schools was awarded an $8,100 Massachusetts Literacy Institute Grant from the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE), state Rep. Bradley H. Jones Jr., state Sen. Brendan Crighton, and acting Superintendent of Schools Thomas Geary announced Thursday morning.

“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Sen. Crighton and Rep. Jones for their work in helping the Lynnfield Public Schools to secure this grant,” Geary said in a press release. “These funds will help to strengthen our district’s MTSS (multi-tiered system of support) model and literacy skills for all students. Our grant team is excited to work together to develop a literacy plan that is driven by student data and is aligned with our district goals. We’re thankful for the opportunity to partner with DESE on this grant, and are excited for the opportunities that this grant provides.”

According to Jones’ office, Lynnfield is one of 15 recipients selected in the latest round of grants.

“Congratulations to Superintendent Kristen Vogel, acting Superintendent Geary, and their team for securing this literacy grant,” Jones said in the press release. “The collaborative approach that will be used to develop and implement a district-wide literacy program will set measurable goals for Lynnfield’s elementary school students and will help them develop a solid foundation to position them for continued success as they move on to middle school, high school, and their post-secondary education.” 

According to the Commonwealth’s website, the Massachusetts Literacy Institute Competitive Grant supports educators and administrators in creating literacy plans aligned to an MTSS model for grades K–5 in order to better serve all children. Districts will create K–5 literacy plans that include literacy leadership responsibilities, evidence-based core instruction and intervention, assessment, and data-based decision-making.

“Literacy is the foundation of learning and the key to unlocking opportunities for our students,” Crighton said in the press release. “Investments like these reflect our shared commitment to fostering a brighter community through education.”
