The White Salmon Valley School District is progressing toward adoption of a new literacy curriculum, including both reading and writing.  Superintendent Jerry Lewis says one of their goals is to have alignment all the way through the K-12 system, adding establishing reading skills in the early grades is the building block to all education.  He adds the reading and writing components go hand-in-hand with each other.  Lewis says at the end of the month the district will narrow down curriculum choices, with a focus on the K-6 level.
