The 2026 North Dakota Literacy Summit marks The Implementation Chapter; a pivotal moment for educators ready to move beyond awareness and into aligned, effective practice grounded in the Science of Reading.

As literacy knowledge continues to grow across North Dakota, the focus now shifts to doing the work: **aligning instruction, refining systems, and implementing evidence-based practices** that lead to improved outcomes for all learners. This year’s Summit is designed to support educators at every stage of implementation, from early foundations to advanced instructional application.

Through intentional learning experiences, role-aligned breakout sessions, and targeted content strands, including **Early Childhood, Dyslexia, and Adolescent Literacy**, participants will engage in practical, actionable professional learning that strengthens instructional coherence across classrooms, schools, and districts.

The Literacy Summit will also create space for collaboration and partnership, connecting educators with peers, experts, and high-quality instructional resources to support sustained implementation beyond the event.

Join us in Bismarck as we turn the page together because this is ***The Implementation Chapter, and it’s time to do the work!***
