The synchronous LIVE teaching company is growing its presence as it works towards improving educational outcomes for students across the country
DES MOINES, Iowa, Oct. 17, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Elevate K-12, the leading provider of high-quality synchronous LIVE teaching for K-12 classrooms in the United States, is expanding its presence in Iowa with 15 newly signed districts. The expansion brings the innovative company to a total of more than 500 school districts across the United States.
“We couldn’t be happier to be expanding Elevate K-12 in Iowa,” said Shaily Baranwal, Elevate K-12’s Founder and CEO. “Through partnerships with districts across the country, Elevate K-12 has been able to help alleviate the pains caused by the teacher shortage. Our live, synchronous and effective teaching model solves critical problems facing schools today by providing access to teachers who would not otherwise be accessible to that school.”
The expansion in Iowa will support Elevate K-12 in its mission to solve the ongoing teacher-shortage crisis by bringing its LIVE teaching to more schools and districts that lack teachers in critical content in key educational areas, including core academic classes as well as relevant electives such as Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Personal Finance, and more.
For several years, schools across the country have been struggling to fill vacant positions and shrink class sizes that have grown significantly as a result of the teacher shortage. Further, a survey conducted by the National Education Association revealed that 55% of teachers say they now plan to exit the profession earlier than they planned on at the beginning of their careers. Elevate K-12’s seamless LIVE instruction helps provide schools with great teachers as they contend with these challenges.
“We are offering teachers the ability to teach on their terms – allowing them the flexibility to own their schedules and teach from anywhere, which will keep them in the profession longer and drive more talent to the profession,” said Baranwal. “We are eager to see the positive impact that Elevate K-12 will have on Iowa.”
