Speak Agent is now available FREE (with no purchase obligation) for use during school closings for a limited number of districts (as many as we can serve on a first-come, first-serve basis). Our goal is to give your teachers resources to engage their students with online math or science content while at home during school closure. This is why we are offering select school districts the opportunity to take advantage of our new Home Access Program.
Language of Math for CCSS- and TEKS-aligned 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Math.
Language of Science for NGSS and TEKS-aligned elementary Science.
Students can sign in remotely to access digital lessons from any laptop, desktop, or tablet computer.

Teachers can manage class assignments and see the work their students are doing through our digital portfolio tool. Our team is on call to help you get started at no cost. You will also have access to live and recorded PD webinars that provide research-based instructional strategies.
Now! To get started, a supervisor/director in your district's Curriculum & Instruction department should schedule a 15-minute call with us. We will then get your account set up and ready to go within 48 hours!
We will honor the free access program for use both in-school and at-home through July 31, 2020. You will remain eligible for our low-cost New Customer Program next fall. Our sole focus is making sure that your students and teachers have a great digital learning experience with Speak Agent!
