We believe we will be more successful with a diverse team and are seeking candidates who have lived experience related to social justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

We pair students who need extra support with expert reading tutors who provide daily, 15-minute, Science of Reading‑based instruction that rapidly closes their decoding gaps.
We focus on the foundational reading skills—phonics, phonemic awareness, and sight words—kids need to master so they can decode a sentence.
Students in Ignite Reading’s program achieve over 2 weeks of reading skills growth per week of instruction, and notably all students achieve the same outstanding results including students with IEPs, multilingual learners, students of color and those receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
