Improve Literacy Instruction and Better Meet the Unique Needs of Every Student
Literacy ReclaimEd is a no-cost, grant-funded professional development opportunity that addresses the achievement gap in elementary literacy for students with specific language variations. This initiative equips kindergarten through fifth-grade classroom educators to improve literacy instruction and better meet the unique needs of their students. We are recruiting schools to participate in this initiative during the 2026–2027 and 2027–20208 school years. As an added benefit, the first 200 teachers who successfully complete program requirements will receive a $500 stipend!

Are you ready to challenge the predictability of student outcomes in your math classroom? In this session, we will introduce the core of GLEAM math instruction — teaching that is grade-level, engaging, affirming, and meaningful. You’ll get a sneak peek into our comprehensive four-day training series designed to reimagine your math instruction.
It’s easy to walk into a classroom and see that a lesson is or isn’t working, but it’s more difficult to name what’s happening and know what to do about it. Meanwhile, teachers are planning and delivering lessons with the best intentions, yet many students still don’t consistently have access to rigorous, grade-level instruction. The gap between what leaders see and what teachers need is rarely about effort or intention. It’s about a missing framework. This webinar is designed for instructional leaders ready to move beyond general notions of “good teaching” to building a common lens for supporting teachers in planning for rigorous, grade-level instruction.
