What are these scopes?
How we address equity
Our goal is to help every learner access grade-level work and succeed at achieving proficiency and beyond by providing high-quality, engaging, culturally relevant content, along with assessment tools for setting high expectations. Our professional learning furthers this goal by showing educators how implementing our HQIMs with integrity can increase classroom equity and access. This starts with educators learning to use the instructional and language routines embedded in our programs to support productive student discourse for all learners and expands to identifying opportunities throughout each lesson to position all students as capable thinkers, mathematicians, and readers.

How we build district capacity
Collaboration with district and school leadership is essential for student impact, and we invest in building their capacity to manage successful implementations. Our exceptional service starts as soon as a district decides to adopt. We work alongside system leaders to plan their implementation, including setting goals and developing a professional learning plan, and continue to meet with them throughout the year to finetune their approach. In addition to systems-level support, we work directly with school leaders and coaches on activities critical to sustaining momentum and setting high expectations, including data analysis and structured classroom walkthroughs.
