Thank you to Fox Corporation and CNBC for covering the reading gains of LRSD students who are working on foundational reading skills through Ignite Reading. Little Rock School District has made an extraordinary commitment to ensuring all students are fluent readers, with 2,000 students in 13 schools working on closing reading gaps this year with Ignite Reading. Sixty-seven percent of 4th graders are behind grade level in reading nationally. "This is a crisis that cannot be solved by just one teacher in one classroom. They need support through partnerships like Ignite Reading." - Jessica Reid Sliwerski https://hubs.ly/Q02myHb40
About us
Only 33% of U.S. fourth graders and 31% of eighth graders are reading at grade level (according to National Assessment of Educational Progress reading assessment scores). Ignite Reading is on a mission to fix this. Ignite Reading delivers one-to-one virtual tutoring that teaches K–8th graders the foundational skills they need to become confident, fluent readers. We pair developing readers with expert reading tutors who provide daily, 15-minute, Science of Reading-based instruction that rapidly closes decoding gaps. Students across all demographics achieve the same outstanding results, including students with IEPs, multilingual learners, students of color and those receiving free or reduced-price lunch. After 14 weeks of tutoring with Ignite Reading, students whose composite score was at or above benchmark on the DIBELS assessment grew from 11% to 45%.* By ensuring all students master the foundational skills to fluently read any word, Ignite Reading empowers them to move forward and unlock everything school and life have to offer. "Ignite Reading is one of the most, if not the most, successful interventions we have implemented in our district. The student results and program design are indisputable." - Claudia Salvestrin, Assistant Superintendent, Red Bluff Union Elementary School District, CA *Source: Study conducted by American Institutes for Research of K–3rd graders in six school districts in Massachusetts
