The Othniel Project, a story of hope and reformation - leadership design integrating literacy with the Bible as a mentor text.
Brenda Davis, Ph.D., MSEd., MAEd
Leadership Design Consultant and Researcher
My continuing research involves recruiting social researchers to lead constructive social change. While inspiration can be fleeting, I remain inspired to do the work of Leadership, Literacy, and Families. The Othniel Project, a story of hope and reformation, initially targets 160,000 children reading below grade level in families in Baltimore City and Prince George's County School districts; plus LA districts. I believe literacy is deliverance with the Bible as the mentor text.

Integrating Homeschool Elements into Public School iHEPS*
Integrating homeschool elements into public school (iHEPS)will constructively impact student achievement, especially in reading, in low-performing schools around the world. The iHEPs study is a response intervention to the 2018 research study “Relationships in a Low-performing Middle School.” Studies show when families connect intentionally with organization strategies and literacy students perform better. iHEPS is a continuum best practices focused on family connectedness with schools to addresses the future research needed in the collaboration between schools and families. Relationship development, cultivating climates of connectedness and increased reading performance are aspects that drive results of the iHEPS project.
When parents/families integrate key organizational skills through time management, literacy, before and after school (45 minutes total), children’s overall school performance increases.
