Implementation Schools

At Schools Cubed, we believe in the Systems, Structures, and Science of Reading. We partner with schools and districts across the country to help create high performing systems of learning. These partnerships are called, “implementation or laboratory schools”. They embody our mission, to transform low, or under-performing schools into high-achieving, self-sustaining educational systems of excellence. Currently, if you have less than 70% of your students reading at grade-level, regardless of their economic status, your school is under-performing.

Literacy Evaluations

Schools Cubed is one of the few literacy consulting groups that provides a comprehensive literacy audit for schools and districts. The outcome from the audit provides school leaders with the framework to establish the necessary systems and structures that support teachers and students as they implement the Science of Reading.

Systems, Structures and the Science of Reading are the key ingredients in all highly-performing schools.

Systems

Strong SYSTEMS ensure effective collaboration and give teachers the data they need to measure progress and performance.

Structures

Successful schools have STRUCTURES place to ensure school days are learning-focused and maximize instructional time.

Science of Reading

High-performing schools know and use instructional strategies based on the SCIENCE OF READING to achieve exceptionally high outcomes for students.
