Celebrating an amazing year with some of our CPRESA Growing Readers participants! 📚✨
This year, we empowered teachers with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to teach reading and improve outcomes for young readers. 💙💚Investing in teachers is investing in brighter futures!
So excited to set up our CPRESA Writing Fair winners at the Tifton Mall today! 🎉 Stop by, take a read, and celebrate our incredible young authors.
The Young Georgia Authors (YGA) Writing Competition inspires K–12 students across Georgia to grow their writing skills and creativity through stories, poetry, essays, and more—advancing from school to district, regional, and state levels.
Come support these talented writers and see their work in action! ✍️📚

We had a wonderful day co-hosting a powerful learning experience supporting literacy with SWRESA at the Seeds of Literacy Conference! 🌱📚

Day 2 of Growing Readers was all about deepening practice and growing together! 📚🌟
Participants from Brooks, Cook, Thomas, and Turner county school districts strengthened their understanding of explicit instruction, planned purposeful lessons, and practiced teaching with clear, actionable steps. They also designed small-group lessons tailored to student needs—and enjoyed plenty of fellowship along the way. A powerful day of learning, collaboration, and connection! 💙💚
📚 Growing Readers participants engaged in a day of learning today. They received a fun read-aloud book in honor of World Read Aloud Day and deepened their knowledge with reading skills, connected them to reading behaviors, and applied strategies to better support student instruction. 🍎📚
Come and Join us at our Literacy Conference hosted by SWRESA and Coastal Plains RESA at the Thomas County Board of Education in Thomasville, GA 📚

On Wednesday, the CPRESA staff gathered to celebrate the retirement of Mr. Bobby Smith. With 5 decades of service in many different roles, Bobby is known state-wide for his work to improve outcomes for Georgia students, and the CPRESA districts especially have benefitted from his expertise. Bobby, we salute you! You are a legend in school improvement, a man who can make Excel do your bidding and data beg for mercy! You will be missed (but we still have your phone number)!
