Happy holidays from the Gradient Learning team! We wish you a season filled with joy, rest, and everything you need to recharge for an amazing 2026!

“The Gradient Guides play an invaluable role in supporting teachers across our schools. They walk alongside their colleagues, helping them troubleshoot and build skills to navigate the learning platform with confidence.” “Having a Gradient Guide has saved me countless hours as an administrator saving me from the minutiae of platform management. The real-time support has allowed me to fully dedicate my focus where it is needed.” ….just a few examples of what our partners are saying about the value of the Gradient Guide program at Gradient Learning. I’m honored to support this group of passionate leaders! #gradientlearning #teacherleaders #wholestudenteducation

When we try to remove every challenge, we’re not actually helping. We’re preventing a “productive struggle” that helps students build neural highways they need to build independence.
