The purpose of this guide is to assist schools in establishing a literacy team and to provide guidance as they develop, implement, monitor and sustain their literacy plan. To assist literacy teams in evaluating their existing literacy programs, the Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) has developed a resource, Literacy Program Effectiveness Review for Kentucky Schools (PERKS). Conducting a Literacy Program Effectiveness Review is a recommended process prior to developing or revising literacy plans, and the Literacy PERKS online tool has many resources to support this process.
