EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
Five district employees have been nominated and selected by their peers as Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) district nominees across two broad categories of literacy awards as the district's 2015/2016 winners. Each has demonstrated excellence in promoting literacy in his or her respective area of expertise. We take great pride in our strong literacy programs and commend these literacy leaders as we increase academic and literacy expectations for all students. These district winners were submitted to the Florida Department of Education for state level review. Two of our five district nominees took top state honors. Our state level winners were recognized at the Florida Reading Association Conference in Orlando on October 10, 2015. State Literacy Winners
