Indianapolis, IN, August 17, 2026 —

Warren Township schools in Indianapolis are organizing a series of Family Literacy Nights aimed at empowering parents with a deeper understanding of their children’s reading development, particularly concerning IREAD scores.

These events are designed to bridge the gap between classroom instruction and home support for reading. Parents will have the opportunity to learn about the strategies and methodologies teachers employ to foster reading skills throughout the academic year.

A key focus of the Family Literacy Nights will be to demystify the IREAD-3 assessment, helping parents interpret their child’s performance. This initiative seeks to ensure that families are well-informed about their children’s progress and the benchmarks for reading proficiency.

In addition to understanding test results, attendees will receive practical guidance and actionable tips on how to create an engaging reading environment at home. The goal is to equip parents with the tools and techniques to actively participate in and enhance their children’s reading journey outside of school hours.

The events underscore the district’s commitment to a collaborative approach to education, recognizing the crucial role families play in a child’s academic success. By fostering open communication and providing resources, Warren Township schools aim to strengthen the reading foundation for all its students.
