Annie Ward is Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction for the Mamaroneck Public Schools in Westchester County, NY. Prior to that, she was a Local Instructional Superintendent for the New York City Department of Education, Supervisor of Curriculum and Instruction for the Ridgewood, NJ, Public Schools, and a middle school English teacher. She is the co-author of From Striving to Thriving: How to Grow Confident, Capable Readers (Scholastic).
Expanding on the research, theory, and practice showcased in From Striving to Thriving, this book tackles the "overlabeling" inherent in RTI, and builds a case for voluminous independent reading as the best intervention for all children.
