2024 Fox Reading Conference

Join us on March 7-8, 2024 for the Fox Reading Conference

The 2024 Fox Reading Conference will explore the protective and risk factors associated with language variations. This theme continues our longstanding commitment to support educators in leveraging their students’ diverse strengths and addressing their weaknesses to elevate learning. Nationally recognized language and literacy experts will be featured as they share their expertise and unique perspectives on the intersection of bidialectalism, multilingualism, developmental language disorder (DLD), and dyslexia. They will explore the unique nature of each as well as their intersections. We invite you to join us in-person on campus or online virtually for this free conference.

Note: Participants may receive a certificate of attendance for up to 5.5 hours each day. Attendance is verified by sign-in sheet for in-person participants and by online analytics for participants joining virtually. Individuals are responsible for ensuring that this event meets criteria that school districts or organizations require for the submission of professional development (PD) credits or continuing education units (CEUs). Certificates of attendance will be issued within 6 weeks after the event. It is the individual's responsibility to submit the certificate to their school district or professional organization.
