Suncrest Elementary School is making significant strides in literacy development as part of the Community Schools of Frankfort’s commitment to the Pillar of Literacy. Focusing on early learners, particularly in Kindergarten through 2nd Grade, Suncrest has implemented a strong and well-planned system to build foundational reading skills. “At Suncrest, we’ve been focusing on building strong literacy foundations in our youngest learners,” says principal Diane Vielee. “The growth we’ve seen in these students so early in the year is truly inspiring.” With targeted reading strategies, teachers have successfully fostered an environment where students are not only improving academically but are also developing a genuine love for books and storytelling.
