To further support literacy development across the Bay Islands, we offered a series of Spanish-language workshops focused on the use of the GANE Guide (Guía para la Aplicación del Nivel de Lectura)—a practical tool designed to help educators assess students and determine their appropriate reading levels.

Over 36 hours of professional development, we conducted eight workshops across the region, training a total of 231 teachers. These sessions, delivered entirely in Spanish, provided hands-on instruction in administering reading assessments, interpreting results, and using the data to inform classroom strategies.

By equipping educators with accessible, Spanish-language tools and methodologies, this initiative is helping to ensure that students receive instruction tailored to their specific reading needs. Through this targeted support, we are not only strengthening literacy outcomes but also reinforcing teachers’ capacity to make data-driven decisions in their classrooms. This program represents another important step toward building a stronger, more equitable educational future across the Bay Islands.
