When a striving reader gets their first real taste of reading, something extraordinary happens: Walls come down. Confidence builds. And “I can’t do it” becomes “I can’t be stopped.”
As the leading reading intervention program, Read 180® helps students who are two or more years behind become active, accomplished readers. By bringing teachers, families, and adaptive technology together, it meets students on their unique paths to provide a truly personalized experience, whether in a traditional classroom or a hybrid learning environment.

Maria’s family fled to escape the violence in Syria. When she arrived in the U.S., Maria had to adjust to a new culture and make up for large gaps in her education.
