Accelerate Learning is a curriculum company portfolio rather than one product. It is intended primarily for learners using one of Accelerate Learning’s science, mathematics, literacy, or early-learning programs, with students, teachers, curriculum leaders, and administrators using it to support stem curriculum, intervention, assessment, and digital instructional resources.

District use may involve STEMscopes, Math Nation, Collaborate Science, Kide Science, or another distinct program. Districts should evaluate how the product fits adopted curriculum, student needs, instructional time, and the work educators must do around it.

Activate Learning IQWST is the IQWST middle-school science curriculum from Activate Learning. It is designed primarily for middle-school science students, with science teachers, students, curriculum leaders, and coaches using it to support phenomena-driven inquiry, scientific modeling, explanation, argumentation, and integrated middle-school science.

Students investigate coherent real-world questions through hands-on activities, readings, models, discussion, evidence, and written explanations across physical, life, and Earth science. The product should be evaluated for the specific learners, instructional setting, and intensity of support a district intends—not simply as another source of digital activities.

Actively Learn is McGraw Hill’s digital reading, annotation, and instructional-content platform. It is intended primarily for upper-elementary through high-school readers across ELA, science, and social studies, with students, teachers, literacy specialists, and curriculum leaders using it to support close reading, annotation, discussion, formative assessment, and disciplinary literacy.

Teachers assign texts or import content, embed questions and notes, provide scaffolds, and review annotations and written responses. Districts should evaluate how the product fits adopted curriculum, student needs, instructional time, and the work educators must do around it.

Aeries SIS is a California-focused student information system that manages enrollment, demographics, attendance, scheduling, courses, grades, transcripts, discipline, health information, programs, and state reporting. It serves as the operational student record used by district offices, schools, teachers, students, and families.

California districts use Aeries to support daily school operations and CALPADS reporting while exchanging rosters and records with learning, assessment, communication, nutrition, identity, and other systems. Districts should document which Aeries modules, portals, APIs, and third-party integrations are authoritative for each data domain.

Alma is a cloud-based SIS and learning-management environment for K–12 schools. It combines student records, enrollment, scheduling, attendance, gradebook, standards-based grading, transcripts, communication, portals, reporting, and instructional workflows in one platform.

Schools use Alma to run core student administration while giving educators and families a unified view of academic information. Districts should evaluate its fit for California state reporting, complex district scheduling, specialized-program data, integrations, and scale rather than assuming that features used by individual schools cover every LEA requirement.

Amira Learning is an AI-supported reading tutor and assessment platform. It is designed primarily for early and upper-elementary readers, especially students needing oral-reading practice and rapid feedback, with students, classroom teachers, reading specialists, interventionists, and administrators using it to support oral-reading fluency, decoding, comprehension, screening, practice, and progress monitoring.

Students read aloud to the system and receive prompts or practice while educators use assessment and session data to identify patterns and plan human instruction. The product should be evaluated for the specific learners, instructional setting, and intensity of support a district intends—not simply as another source of digital activities.

BookFlix is Scholastic’s digital paired-fiction-and-nonfiction literacy resource. It is intended primarily for early-childhood and primary-grade readers, with students, teachers, librarians, multilingual-learner staff, and families using it to support early literacy, informational reading, vocabulary, comprehension, and book engagement.

Children watch or read paired books and use related games, vocabulary, author information, and comprehension activities. Districts should evaluate how the product fits adopted curriculum, student needs, instructional time, and the work educators must do around it.

Breakout EDU is a platform and physical-kit system for educational escape-room-style games. It is intended primarily for K–12 learners solving collaborative academic puzzles, with students, teachers, librarians, coaches, and enrichment staff using it to support problem solving, collaboration, content review, persistence, and communication.

Teachers facilitate digital or hands-on puzzle sequences tied to academic content, community building, or professional learning. Districts should evaluate how the product fits adopted curriculum, student needs, instructional time, and the work educators must do around it.

Britannica Education is a suite of digital encyclopedia, media, and instructional-reference resources. It is intended primarily for K–12 learners and educators using age-adjusted reference content, with students, teachers, librarians, multilingual-learner staff, and families using it to support research, background knowledge, informational literacy, media literacy, and cross-curricular inquiry.

Users search vetted articles, images, video, primary sources, biographies, and learning resources at different reading levels and languages. Districts should evaluate how the product fits adopted curriculum, student needs, instructional time, and the work educators must do around it.
