About Springboard Collaborative

Springboard helps schools juice the rest of the orange, dramatically improving educational outcomes by harnessing the potential of parent-teacher collaboration. Our vision is to close the literacy gap by closing the gap between home and school. Springboard offers a suite of products and services that combine reading instruction for Pre-K through 3rd graders; workshops training parents to teach reading at home; a rigorous coaching cycle for teachers; and an incentive structure that awards learning tools to families—from books to tablets—in proportion to student reading gains.
