Empowering Educators. Improving Outcomes. Transforming Literacy.

At Kids First, we offer comprehensive, research-based literacy support designed to meet the needs of every school, every classroom, and every learner. Grounded in the Science of Reading, our services help educators deliver high-quality, structured literacy instruction that leads to real, measurable growth.

What We Offer

A Full Spectrum of Literacy Services, Tailored to Your School’s Needs

Professional Development Training

Our high-impact professional learning sessions help educators deepen their understanding of the Science of Reading and apply it through practical, classroom-ready strategies. Sessions are engaging, relevant, and customized to your school or district goals.

Side-by-Side Coaching

Kids First coaches work alongside teachers and leaders in real time—modeling lessons, planning instruction, analyzing student data, and offering feedback that builds confidence and capacity. Our job-embedded coaching turns learning into action.

Data-Driven Planning Support

We guide educators through the analysis of multiple forms of assessment to identify trends, target gaps, and plan instruction that accelerates growth for all learners. Our support ensures that every literacy decision is rooted in evidence.

Leadership Collaboration

Strong literacy instruction starts with strong leadership. We support principals, instructional coaches, and district leaders with strategic planning, walk-through tools, and coaching that aligns classroom practices with long-term literacy goals.

Why It Works

Rooted in Research. Focused on Results.

Our services are built on the foundational elements of the Science of Reading, including the Simple View of Reading and Scarborough’s Reading Rope. We help schools move from isolated strategies to cohesive, school-wide literacy systems that support every student—from emerging readers to those reading to learn.
