What Your Peers are Saying
Evelyn McFadden
Head Start Supervisor, Hillsborough County Public Schools
“With the addition of the home instruction, we will continue to bridge the area of home-school learning and renew the concept of the parent as the child’s first teacher. I believe that this will be a great model for the community, which is key. Districts are always looking for that home-school connection and how to have students arrive in kindergarten ‘ready to learn.’”
Mike Kuhrt
Superintendent
Wichita Falls ISD
“When the pandemic hit I didn’t have to worry about my students learning because I knew Waterford.org had that part covered. I was able to spend my time making sure my students and teachers felt safe coming back to school.”
Renee Dove
Superintendent
Okmulgee Public Schools
“The growth and results match exactly with what we are trying to accomplish. I love how it meshes with our daily practices. Our teachers plan their lessons around the data they receive from Waterford.”
Matthew Scoggins
Sped Teacher, RBT, Behavior Specialist Jackson County Schools, TN
“I have taught for 18 years and seen many programs come through that were the one to fix all…For my special education students, everything builds from the very level they need. All of my lessons and IEPs are built around Waterford. It personally has been a blessing for our students. Again thanks so much for this program. It has changed the special education world!“
Becky Robins
Director of Curriculum and Instruction
Goose Creek CISD
“If only I had this data when I was a principal.“
