The REACH Parent District
84% of families credit The REACH Parent District for helping their child improve their reading.
The Problem
More students need extra academic support, but limited instructional time during the school day, tighter budgets, enrollment shifts, and the ongoing challenge of engaging families put real pressure on school systems’ capacity to deliver.
Our Solution
The REACH Parent District helps families transform out-of-school time into consistent, high-impact learning support.
The REACH Parent District combines Family Success Coaching, certified high-impact tutoring, technology, data, and multilingual outreach to help families become daily academic partners.
How The REACH Parent District works
Built around families
Family Success Coaching helps parents understand progress, build routines, and stay engaged in their child’s learning.
Designed for consistent use
and growth
The REACH Parent District tracks activation, dosage, engagement, and growth data so Family Success Coaching can help families stay on track and get the right support at the right time.
Available beyond the school day
High-quality learning support continues after school, on weekends, during breaks, and over the summer.
Certified and family-tested
REACH uses a rigorous certification process to identify academic tools and tutoring partners that are responsive to student needs, easy to use, protective of student data, grounded in evidence, and trusted by families.
Progressive Engagement Over Time
The REACH Parent District does not ask families to make a large commitment before they have experienced the value of the program. Instead, we build engagement step by step—helping families move from getting started to developing greater ownership of their child’s learning.
-
Families enroll, learn whether or not their child is reading on grade level, and complete their first tutoring sessions with support from their Family Success Coach.
-
Families begin to incorporate tutoring and coaching into their regular schedules. Family Success Coaches help them identify routines that work for their household.
-
As families continue to participate, Family Success Coaching helps them understand their progress, address barriers, and maintain consistent learning time. Over time, families have more information, experience, and confidence to support and make decisions about their child’s learning.
Along the way, families receive badges and recognition that celebrate progress and reinforce each new level of engagement.
