In 2011, 28% of the Louisiana workforce had a two-‐ or four-‐year degree. To meet Louisiana’s future needs, this number must double. Our students are just as capable as their peers around the country: In part, this gap is caused by our own academic expectaNons not aligning with the job need. While a score of “mastery” or level four out of five denotes readiness to complete at least a year of college on-‐Nme, in our state “basic” or level three out of five has been accepted as a mark of full proficiency. Our students deserve high expectaFons: Over the last 10 years we have seen a steady increase in our students’ “basic” proficiency (over a 15 point increase). We now must turn our a0enNon to increasing the rates of “mastery” student performance.

What be0er way to convince students that informaNonal text can be exciNng to read than by giving them quality texts about a period of history filled with dramaNc events, like in the If You Lived at the Time of the American RevoluEon unit? Last year I taught The Lightning Thief unit. I was amazed at the thinking it inspired in my fourth graders. The powerful language and mythological references were great tools to get students excited about reading modern literature.” Louisiana Believes Grade 8 Leaders Diedra G. Miller • 14 years in Jefferson Parish, 10 years teaching grade 8 ELA • “I am excited to engage in rich discussions with teachers about how The Call of the Wild by Jack London points to the ever-‐changing themes of perseverance, pride, respect, loss etc. London has offered a doorway for readers to learn about human nature.
