Mission Statement
ReadWorks is committed to solving America’s reading comprehension crisis and student achievement gap. Driven by cognitive science research, ReadWorks creates world-class content, teacher guidance, and integrated tools that improve teacher effectiveness and student achievement.
About This Cause
ReadWorks is an edtech non-profit focused on improving reading comprehension that, through its digital platform, provides research-based content, curricular supports, and other features that integrate with core English Language Arts (ELA) curricula. In the 2020-2021 school year alone, ReadWorks was used by more than 1 million educators and 13.1 million students, including those in 93% of the highest-poverty K-8 schools–the population we are most focused on based on our mission. At ReadWorks, we have a deep-seated belief that ALL students deserve a high-quality reading education, one that is based on research, in order to give them the best possible chance at success in school and in life. By providing reading content that reflects the diversity of our world—and that is freely accessible to all—we work to ensure that every child can see themselves reflected in their reading materials. By providing free materials to make all educators more effective at teaching regardless of zip code, we are doing our part to move closer to a world of successful readers with bright futures ahead. Many organizations seek to address the literacy crisis, yet ReadWorks stands out in 3 key ways: (1) the unmatched size of our nonfiction library; (2) our research-based digital tools, features, and content; and (3) our superb educator guidance. With over 5,500 texts, ReadWorks offers one of the largest, highest-quality libraries of curated nonfiction and fiction texts in the country, with research-based curricular supports and formative assessments. Our web-based product offers digital tools for differentiation so that educators can meet the needs of all of their students including English language learners, struggling students, and reluctant readers. Our digital supports include eBooks, human-voice audio, less complex texts to scaffold content (StepReads), and more–all for free and easily accessible online. We also offer free educator guidance through webinars, training videos, and on-site self-serve information. When surveyed, 98% of educators believed ReadWorks provides high-quality reading curricula, 89% feel ReadWorks helps improve their students’ reading comprehension, and 96% have recommended ReadWorks to others. It’s this unique combination of high-quality content, easy-to-use features and tools, and educator guidance that has created our incredible community of educators and helped us grow to reach over 13.1 million students each year, enabling greater impact than other organizations.
