Research for teaching reading in secondary

[Kevin Dellit <kdellit@TRIPATH.COLOSYS.NET>]

Hi all,

Our school district is currently developing goals required by the state
department of education.  Some in the high school and middle school want
to target reading instruction.  There are some in the district who say it
is pointless to teach reading beyond the elementary level and say they
have research to support this. Several of us disagree, so we are looking for
research to support the teaching of reading in the regular curriculum as well
as research to support teaching remedial reading at the secondary level.

Can anyone point me to some resources supporting reading instruction in the
secondary schools?  Thanks for your help.
