Why Districts Choose OpenLiteracy®

We’re helping districts build MTSS Systems

Because reading success isn’t just about closing gaps - it’s about building a system where every student learns to read.

Many tutoring programs focus narrowly on foundational skills, offering short, daily sessions designed to help students catch up in phonics and decoding. And while those skills are essential, they are only one part of what it takes to become a skilled reader.

At OpenLiteracy, we believe districts don’t just need tutoring seats.
They need a partner to strengthen their entire literacy system.

We go beyond foundational skills

Foundational skills matter, but they are not enough.

OpenLiteracy builds:

  • Foundational skills (phonics, decoding, fluency)

  • Language & reading comprehension

  • Confidence reading connected text

  • Writing and knowledge-building skills

Reading proficiency requires both word recognition and comprehension working together.

We integrate into your MTSS system

Most tutoring programs are designed to “plug in” with minimal disruption.

OpenLiteracy is designed to transform how intervention works:

  • Aligned to Tier I curriculum

  • Built for Tier II and Tier III coherence

  • Designed with your schedule, staffing, and data systems in mind

We don’t just deliver tutoring.
We help you build a literacy system that works.

Our tutors are expert educators

Our sessions are led by experienced educators with a minimum of five years classroom teaching experience. Most of our tutors are certified or retired teachers with an average of 15 years classroom teaching experience.

What does this mean?

  • Stronger instructional decision-making in the moment

  • Better support for multilingual learners and students with IEPs

  • Instruction that is adaptive and responsive to student learning needs
