About Groves Literacy Partnerships
Groves Literacy Partnerships (GLP), a division of Groves Learning Organization, exists to ensure that every student, regardless of background, has access to excellent, evidence-based literacy instruction. We partner with public, charter, and independent schools to deliver coaching, curriculum, and professional learning rooted in the science of reading and informed by real-world classroom practice.
We believe literacy is liberation. We know that system-level change is what it takes to get there.
Position Overview
A GLP Literacy Implementation Specialist is a catalyst for change in schools. This role exists to help educators and school leaders deliver literacy instruction that is grounded in evidence and capable of changing a student’s life trajectory.
Literacy Implementation Specialists work directly with educators to translate the science of reading into daily classroom practice. They provide embedded support through professional development, collaborative planning, lesson modeling, and strategic advising that strengthen instruction and accelerate student outcomes.
To succeed in this role, candidates must bring deep expertise in structured literacy, including formal training such as LETRS, Orton-Gillingham, or equivalent. They must also have successful classroom experience and familiarity with using diagnostic data such as DIBELS or FastBridge to guide instruction and intervention. Just as important, they must be able to clearly explain the why behind the work and help educators understand how reading develops and how instructional decisions influence student outcomes.
Schools operate as complex systems, and literacy success depends on more than classroom practice alone. Literacy Implementation Specialists must be able to navigate these systems thoughtfully by working with teachers, principals, and leadership teams to identify barriers, align instructional efforts, and drive student outcomes.
