Abstract
This study was a one-year investigation into the implementation of two pilot literacy curricula in
Hamilton County Schools in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Surveys, interviews, and student performance
data were analyzed to evaluate the process of curricular implementation and current literacy
practices in elementary schools across the district. This study was conducted by two doctoral
students to fulfill the requirements of the doctorate of education degree from the Peabody College
of Education and Human Development at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee.
