Transforming lives through literacy - Achieve Now is dedicated to transforming the educational system in Philadelphia to one that produces students who can read. Our mission is to bring all children to grade-level reading. Our vision is a simple one: that all students gain the basic skills necessary to succeed in school and life. Our goal is to move 6,000 students to grade-level reading by June 2020. We will do this by incorporating evidence-based literacy instruction into Philadelphia schools, resulting in dramatic improvements in grade level reading.
