But what if it’s our systems that are truly at risk? In this keynote\, Dr. Amanda McCaleb invites educators to rethink what it really means to support students with dyslexia and those at risk for it. Blending the latest research with lived experience from classrooms\, coaching\, and leadership\, she challenges us to look beyond programs and labels—and examine how systems\, not students\, often determine outcomes. Dr. McCaleb shares what it takes to create schools where equitable access to literacy isn’t just a hope—it’s the standard.You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of how every educator can be a literacy advocate—and how lasting change begins when we confront the uncomfortable truth: we’ve seen the gaps\, we’ve seen the students falling through them\, and the systems aren’t changing fast enough.\nDr. Amanda McCaleb is a national literacy leader\, systems builder\, and passionate dyslexia advocate with over 15 years of experience in K–12 education\, higher ed\, and large-scale educator development. Her work centers on bridging research and practice—helping educators transform reading instruction through the science of reading and sustained support that drives real change. Amanda contributes strategic insight and leadership to national initiatives\, helping build and refine coaching and professional development models that scale with both quality and impact. She also teaches graduate-level courses on dyslexia and assessment as an adjunct professor at Carlow University.A former special educator\, district literacy interventionist specialist\, and special education process coordinator\, Amanda brings a 360° view of student needs and instructional systems. She’s a published researcher and national speaker\, with work featured by the Rockefeller Institute of Government and in literacy journals. Known for her high standards\, big heart\, and quick wit\, Amanda is committed to empowering educators and making systems work better for kids.\n\nSpecial Panel Discussion – Supporting Students with Dyslexia in School: Moderated by Pam Kastner\nAdditional Breakout Sessions:\n\nSpelling Analysis\nStructured Literacy for ESL\nMaximizing the Literacy Block: Five Guiding Principles from Research\nAssessment and Testing for Dyslexia\nMTSS/Literacy in Secondary\nSound Walls and Multi-Sensory Strategies\nEffective Practices with Tiered Groups\nDevelopmental Language Disorders\nCollaborative Classroom: Writing Instruction\nAssistive Technology\nDevoted to Transformational Learning and Teaching\n\nPLUS: a Special Pre-Conference\, Wednesday October 29th\n\n12- 4 p.m. Pre-Conference Workshop Session\nUnpacking Evidence-Aligned Writing Instruction: How to integrate writing to support reading comprehension across all disciplines\nVal Piccini\, Instructor\, directs Carlow University’s International Dyslexia Association accredited Reading Specialist program. She holds a Master of Education degree in Reading with Disabilities from Wilmington University and is completing her doctorate degree in literacy leadership at Carlow University. Her role at Carlow prepares professional reading educators to become competent practitioners and agents for equitable literacy: ensuring every learner achieves full literacy through systematic and explicit teaching of reading\, writing and spelling. Additionally\, Val is a National LETRS Professional Learning Facilitator for Lexia Learning.

SUMMARY:Creating Safer Spaces funded by Remake Learning
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to our online event\, where we will discover how to foster environments where everyone feels respected\, heard\, and supported. This session blends practical strategies with self-awareness to help build trust\, reduce harm\, and nurture community belonging. Don’t miss out on this chance to participate in this important conversation! \nShannon Jenkins\, program deliverer at Awaken Pittsburgh\, has had two life events that have placed her squarely in the experience of life-before and life-after: cancer and the loss of mobility as-she-knew-it at age twelve\, and the death of her brother when she was 27. Both carved the paths she would take to working with neurodivergent learners and the gravitation to mindfulness practice. Shannon began teaching neurodivergent learners in 1999\, and has worked as a caseworker for non-profits and government agencies as well. She has been in a relationship with meditation and mindfulness practice for 11 years. Shannon finds putting hands in soil\, petting animals\, laughter\, silliness\, movement\, and deep hugs an important part of this practice. She believes learning to love where you are is a radical act. \nMindfulness\, Meditation Training for Work and Life | Awaken Pittsburgh \nNotes: \nThe event link will be shared via your registered email. \nACT 48 hours available upon request. Hours for certified teachers in Pennsylvania.
