NoRedInk is helping students become stronger writers in more than 60% of U.S. school districts. Teachers use our standards-aligned curriculum to provide differentiated, scaffolded support to students as they develop writing proficiency and master grammar and conventions.

Our approach is based on a simple premise: students learn best from their immediate social context. We take their favorite celebrities, fictional characters, athletes, and other interests and use them to generate personalized content. We then incorporate this content into writing and grammar activities that are relevant, rigorous, and engaging. As students complete assignments, teachers receive the data they need to make informed instructional decisions.
