Trusted by these K-12 clients:





K-12 Buying Theme #1
Teacher Shortage
Two years of covid has accelerated teacher burnout and teacher shortages.
44% of schools are reporting vacancies
Rate of teachers quitting is 41% higher than a year ago
K-12 educators are the most burned-out segment of the US labor force
Key Takeaway: New investments need to be made in teacher onboarding and consistent professional development.
K-12 Buying Theme #2
Learning Loss & Student Achievement
Remote learning and other stressors caused high absenteeism and learning loss.
Students are on average five months behind in mathematics and four months behind in reading, according to a McKinsey analysis
Chronic absenteeism, a key contributor, has doubled in some districts
Key Takeaway: Learning loss recovery will require investments in at home, “flipped classroom” individualized learning.


K-12 Buying Theme #3
Parent Partnership
Both teachers and parents want deeper engagement.
Educators recognize that outdated approaches to engagement get in the way of connecting with hard-to-reach families
85% of parents want a better understanding of their child’s progress but prefer to connect via mobile apps (35%) or text messaging (30%)
Key Takeaway: Engaged families lead to higher grades, test scores, and graduation rates, but new tools are needed.
K-12 Buying Theme #4
Digital Learning & Supplemental Instruction
Schools and districts continue to double-down on digital learning and supplemental instruction.
Supplemental materials will grow from 43.9% of the total K-12 instructional materials market in 2020 to 45.7% in 2024
The main driver of this growth is the on-going necessity for teachers and parents to support more student learning at home
Key Takeaway: New digital learning and supplemental instruction investments are key to individualized learning and parent partnership.
