Our mission is to help close the achievement gap for economically disadvantaged children by improving educational opportunities for students, supporting families, and encouraging excellence and innovation in the classroom.
OUR APPROACH
At Noggin, we have adopted a multi-pronged approach to closing the achievement gap. Students enrolled with Noggin have access to multiple programs to help close gaps in learning and give them the knowledge and skills to thrive in college and in their careers. After a multi-year investment, each Noggin Kid will have a diverse range of opportunities aligned with their aspirations following high school graduation. Join us in supporting our amazing students because every child deserves a shot at a bright future!

Noggin's math and reading instruction
and tutoring is provided
exclusively by experienced
classroom teachers.
Significant learning gaps have been caused by the Pandemic and the teacher shortage. According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), a majority of states saw scores decline for fourth- and eighth-graders in mathematics and reading between 2019 and 2022. Reading and math proficiency is the lowest it has been in decades. A study by the Annie E. Casey Foundation shows that four of every five students who come from low-income households don’t meet reading proficiency requirements.
At Noggin, we exclusively utilize experienced classroom teachers to provide math and reading instruction as they are uniquely equipped to bridge learning gaps.
Studies show that high-quality afterschool, summer learning, and tutoring programs are associated with
4-5 months of academic
gains
and positive impact on behavior and attendance.
