MOWR Submissions
The Arizona State Legislature appropriates approximately $45 million annually to elementary schools for the purpose of supporting effective reading instruction in grades K-3. To receive these additional funds, each school district and charter school is annually or biennially required to submit a literacy plan and triannual data for review and approval by the Arizona Department of Education Move on When Reading team.
Literacy Plans for 2020-2021 are due on or by October 1st, 2020. Literacy Assessment Data and Narratives due:
- October 1st, 2020
- February 1st, 2021
- June 1st, 2021
ADEConnect Setup and Permissions for MOWR
Directions for gaining access to the MOWR portal for school-level and LEA-level approvers who are new to MOWR. It is the responsibility of the LEA entity administrator to ensure up-to-date approvers. The MOWR team cannot update these permissions.
2020-2021 School Literacy Plan Submission Guidance
Step-by-step guidance: (this is the first step in a multi-step process)
- Accessing the MOWR portal as the School Approver
- Entering school-level information
- Submitting a school literacy plan to district/charter LEA Approver
This school submission (even for single-site charters/districts) does not go directly to ADE. An LEA Approver will now need to review and accept each school plan prior to submitting to ADE. See the LEA section below, for the next steps.
2020-2021 LEA (District/Charter) Literacy Plan Submission Guidance
Step-by-step guidance:
- Accessing the MOWR portal as the LEA Approver
- Reviewing school plans
- Accepting each plan for aggregation
- Adding final district budget allocations
- Submitting to ADE
2020-2021 Data Submission Guidance
Literacy assessment data is submitted to the ADE three times per school year via the MOWR portal.
This data is due by October 1, February 1, and June 1 of each year. If your school or LEA misses a data submission due date and is no longer able to submit the data electronically, please contact Move On When Reading.
