Literacy Elevated: A TALE of Texas – The Power of Stories and the Road Ahead

Literacy Elevated: A TALE of Texas is a podcast dedicated to amplifying the voices of educators, advocates, and literacy champions across the Lone Star State. Through honest conversations and powerful storytelling, we explored the successes, challenges, and the future of literacy education in Texas—one interview at a time.

In this special series, we’ve heard from classroom teachers, principals, instructional coaches, and policymakers who are shaping the landscape of literacy instruction. From early literacy programs and dyslexia support to the impact of legislative policies like HB 3, HB 3928, and HB 1605, we dive deep into what it takes to build a strong, equitable literacy system that serves every child.

Whether you’re an educator, a parent, a community member, or a policymaker, this podcast is for you. Together, we can elevate literacy, spark new ideas, and inspire collective action that makes a real difference for Texas students.
