Supporting Our Mission
Our mission is to deliver a free reading program for all kids (grades 3-10). We know that reading is personal and that kids need individualized support to grow as readers.
We also know that teachers, schools, and districts benefit from reading data that is clear and curriculum that targets specific reading gaps.
We offer a few premium add-ons to help schools and districts understand and support their readers, assist with program monitoring and performance, and inform and enhance reading instruction.
Additionally, our premium add-ons make it possible for us to offer our amazing reading program for free.

Writing Assessments
Start the school year with a baseline writing assessment. Don't worry. You don't have to grade it. The last thing you want to do is grade essays the first two weeks of school. We are happy to grade them for you. Then, we will share your class writing data with you. You can start the year knowing exactly what writing skills to teach your students. How great is that. Then, you can assign a mid-year and end-of-year assessment to monitor how well your young writers are growing.
