With over 20 years of experience in education, Julie Monday is a literacy coordinator with a passion for supporting both students and educators. Her background includes roles as a classroom teacher, co-educator across multiple grade levels (1st, 3rd, and 5th), reading specialist, and instructional coach. She has also served as a LETRS facilitator, dyslexia advisor, and 504 coordinator, gaining deep insight into the diverse needs of learners.
