CLI and Target, Collaboration at Work

Brennemann Elementary was just one of the three Chicago Public Schools (CPS) elementary schools to receive CLI Model Classroom services through the recent collaboration between CLI and Target. Throughout the visit CLI’s impact on student achievement and a school-wide culture of effective literacy instruction was evident from the hallways to literacy instruction in the classroom. One student, exclaimed “ I like the books the best. I read Bunny Money last night with my Mom. It is now my favorite book! I even like it better than Speed Racer.”

 

Target’s investment in CLI-trained teachers and school leaders, will continue to produce long-lasting results that benefit hundreds of students over the span of each educator’s career.
