Teachers, students, and families need access to high-quality instructional materials that are aligned to state academic standards and that include meaningful training and actionable methods for measuring student growth.

Even prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, nearly 70% of teachers struggled to find high-quality, vetted materials for instruction. Studies show that such materials have a direct and significant impact on student learning. High-quality instructional materials also allow teachers to spend more time daily on high-impact activities like engaging with families rather than low-impact activities like creating materials from scratch.

As we work to support all students with grade-level content, urge education officials in your state to expand use of the best resources possible for our educators, students, and families.
