Sarah Holbrook 

Sarah has spent more than two decades in public education—first as a special education teacher, and now as the Director of Humanities for Kingston City School District, where she is leading a districtwide shift toward evidence-based literacy instruction grounded in the science of reading.

​

She believes every child deserves a teacher who truly understands how to help them become a reader. That belief drives her daily work: supporting educators, building strong literacy systems, and ensuring instructional excellence across classrooms.

​

As a co-creator of the SUNY New Paltz Science of Reading Micro-Credential and a Fellow at the Science of Reading Center, Sarah works to expand teacher knowledge beyond her own district, partnering with schools and educators committed to transforming literacy outcomes.

​

Through her consulting company, Sunday Literacy, she provides professional development, keynotes, leadership coaching, and comprehensive literacy assessments for districts seeking meaningful, sustainable change.

​

Sarah created her blog, Sundays with Sarah, as a space to share wisdom from the field, celebrate educators, and inspire others to embrace research, reflect deeply, and lead with purpose.
