We’re thrilled to announce this year’s LitCon PD Award recipients—an inspiring group of educators who are committed to strengthening literacy instruction in their classrooms, schools, and communities. Please join us in celebrating their dedication and the impact they make every day for K–8 learners.

These awards are made possible thanks to the generosity of donors who believe, just as we do, that every educator deserves access to high-quality professional learning. If you’d like to support future PD awards and other literacy initiatives, we invite you to make a gift today. Your donation helps open doors for educators who might not otherwise be able to attend.

And if you didn’t receive a scholarship, registration for LitCon ’26 is still open! We’d love to have you join us for a full month of flexible, virtual learning designed to elevate literacy practice nationwide. Register at https://literacyconference.org/. 

Congratulations again to all of our winners. We can’t wait to learn with you at LitCon!
