WHERE IT FITS
Where ReadGenie fits, honestly
ReadGenie is
Supplemental practice for students in Tier 2/3 intervention. Your educator picks the skill, students practice with feedback, and you get evidence before the next session.
ReadGenie is not
A screener, a core curriculum, or a replacement for your interventionists. Your screening and curriculum choices stay yours. ReadGenie adds practice capacity next to them.
FUNDING
How North Carolina schools fund ReadGenie
Schools typically use existing federal funds. No competitive application needed.
Title I, Part A
Supplemental reading practice for struggling readers in schoolwide and targeted assistance programs.
IDEA Part B and CEIS
Serves students with IEP reading goals. The 15 percent CEIS set-aside can cover Tier 2/3 students not yet identified, and usage data supports CEIS reporting.
Title II-A and Title IV-A
Title II-A can fund educator data-use training. Title IV-A can fund licenses under the effective use of technology priority.
Your federal programs office makes the final allowability call. We can send an allowable use memo on request.
