LiftEd is equipping educators, specialists, therapists, school leaders and families with tech tools to help children succeed in the Classroom and in life. They are on a mission to close the achievement gap for the 1 in 5 students, who learn differently. The LiftEd app saves educators 10+ hours/week, streamlines compliance requirements, and enables effective data-driven instruction or intervention decisions, and targeted support. LiftEd contracts with K12 districts, charter, and alternative school systems in the U.S. and Europe to empower effective interdisciplinary teams through instructional support and a cloud progress monitoring platform. 98% of the U.S. school districts report critical shortages of Special Education Teachers & Specialized Instructional Support Personnel as part of an $8 billion annual turnover problem. These shortages impede schools from meeting the needs of the growing 7.3 million students with learning disabilities. Despite most having average or above average IQ, without the right academic or emotional support, they are far more likely than their peers to repeat a grade, get suspended, and drop out. These continuous failures cost districts $5+ billion in annual SPED legal due process and out of district student placements. 50% of professionals leave special education within 5 years due to poor working conditions (e.g., excessive paperwork, unmanageable caseloads/workloads, inadequate classroom & data mgmt. tools, overemphasis on compliance, and lack of support from general ed counterparts).
