How We Work
Five Practices We Live By
These shape every decision we make and how we treat the people around us.
01
Teachers Are #1.
We build with teacher input. Teachers are essential to our product, our storytelling, our company culture. We're here to elevate the profession.
02
Move with Joyful Ambition.
We find hard work and big goals to be delightful. We choose hard work. We operate with music and laughter in pursuit of ambitious success. We love a good challenge.
03
Build for Better.
We are focused on innovation for the profession of teaching. We question assumptions and work to constantly level up. Our product, our company, and ourselves.
04
Work Out Loud.
Our starting position is to work out in the open, inviting feedback, collaboration, celebration, and change in pursuit of the best result. We ask for help, accept help, and offer help.
05
Win Little, Win Big.
We show up with focused effort to achieve little wins as a team. When we don't win, we learn from it, and then show up again and again. When we stack little wins, we win big together.
