Report cards are out and conferences are coming up — a time for both celebration and reflection.
If you hear, “They’ll catch up” or “They just need more time,” remember: time alone doesn’t build skills.
Learning happens through effective teaching, practice, and support — not by waiting for readiness to appear.

The Empower Youth Foundation is proud to serve underserved students in Northern Nevada by offering unparalleled, science-driven literacy interventions.

📖 Today is International Literacy Day!
Did you know 63% of American high school graduates read below proficiency, and up to 20% of the population is affected by dyslexia? Literacy is the foundation of all learning but too often, kids are left without the tools they need to thrive.

At Fit Learning, our Fit Reading program transforms readers at every level. Using evidence-based methods and personalized instruction, we help learners build fluency, confidence, and a love for reading. Most students achieve 1–2 years of academic growth in as little as 40 hours.

🌟 On this Literacy Day, we celebrate the power of reading and the future it unlocks for every child.

At the start of this intervention, none of the 16 learners who received Fit Learning's Fit Lite Literacy Intervention were performing at grade level. After 6.5-10 hours of intervention delivered by The Empower Youth Foundation, 56% of the students were at or above grade level! This is the power of Science-Driven Instruction in the Learning Model.

Big Gains in Little Time!
▪️Sixteen 1st graders at Mater Academy in Reno, Nevada received between 6 and 10 hours of Fit Lite Reading instruction as part of Tier 3 intervention—and the results speak volumes!
▪️10 out of 16 students met 100% of their Stretch Growth goal on the i-Ready Reading assessment.
▪️The median progress toward Typical Growth was 154%—more than 1.5 years of growth in a fraction of the time.
▪️Typical Growth reflects the expected annual gain for a student based on grade and starting level.
▪️ Stretch Growth sets a higher bar—designed to help students below grade level catch up.

This is what happens when powerful instruction meets precision delivery.
