Reading Specialist

Each of the five junior highs has a reading specialist who provides a variety of services. In a collaborative effort, she works with teachers to develop and promote literacy and thinking strategies in the classroom. As a diagnostician, she administers both group and individual evaluations of reading achievement and recommends activities to build comprehension. Individuals and small groups of students meet with her to receive instruction to build literacy competencies. In addition, the reading specialist works with staff and parents to promote events that support literacy.

If you have questions about the role of the reading specialist or concerns about your child's literacy skills that you would like to discuss, please call Bonnie Voller, Madison's reading specialist, at 630-420-6400 x2878.  Madison's Reading Specialist is Bonnie Voller.  Mrs. Voller was a Language Arts teacher and team leader for many years before stepping into the Reading Specialist position in 2005.
