Supporting School Districts: Research

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: LEARNING ALLY INC

Learning Ally is working to solve the literacy problem - the 65% of students who are not proficient in reading by 4th grade. Our volunteers help us create accessible education tools and support us in serving over 1.6 million students and 260,000 educators across the U.S.

The volunteer role:

You can help Learning Ally deepen relationships with school districts across the U.S. To improve support for students and educators across the United States, Learning Ally strives to grow our relationships and deepen our connections with districts.

Learning Ally is looking to deepen our connection with school districts across the U.S. so we can best support them in improving literacy outcomes in their schools. Our goal is for volunteers to research curriculum and instruction plans, school improvement plans, technology used, and news/current events within each district. We will then use this information to address and support individual district and school needs.

We need your help to improve our understanding of individual school and district needs. With your support, we can get more accessible education tools to students and their families across the nation.
