Similar companies to Savvas Learning Company

Recognizing the importance of creating an environment where everyone feels seen, heard, respected, and valued — whether in a school or our workplace — we embarked on a journey to create positive change. This includes investing in the culture of our organization, giving back to our communities, and leading the way in supporting teachers to advance their learning and classroom practices.

We realize this journey will take time, and evolve as we continue to learn and share our learnings. While the work is ongoing, it is rooted in one of our core values: an unwavering empathy for all learners and educators.

It starts with the student

We know that the best way to increase student achievement is to set high expectations for all students and increase student engagement. That is why we design the most personalized, accessible, and highest-quality instructional materials. Our solutions employ adaptive learning technology that meets learners where they are at and feature diverse, relevant content that invites students to see themselves reflected in what they learn. We support teachers in creating classroom environments that encourage student voice and elevate diverse perspectives; foster student agency by providing students choices in how they learn; and build inclusive spaces where differences are celebrated as assets. 

 

When we strive for equity in education, we are seeking the best possible outcome for every student. To achieve this, we must create learning environments where students feel safe, welcome, and able to share their thoughts. Students must also have access to rigorous, evidence-based, standards-aligned curriculum that challenges, engages, and inspires them to learn.

About Us

See yourself impacting the future of K-12 education. At Savvas, we believe learning should inspire. Savvas proudly carries on a longstanding tradition of innovation and leadership by providing the highest-quality content spanning all K-12 grade levels and disciplines. We have Scott Foresman, Prentice Hall, and Pearson in our DNA — a lineage of iconic brands that set the standards of excellence in educational resources, including core curriculum, supplemental content, intervention programs, and professional development. 

By combining new ideas, new ways of thinking, and new ways of interacting, we design next-generation learning solutions that help prepare students to become global citizens in a more interconnected, digital world. Developed by top authors and educators, our award-winning programs leverage the power of data and advanced technology to deliver immersive, personalized, and flexible content that connects teachers and students with real-world learning experiences, helping all learners discover their greatness. 

Guided by a deep empathy for learners and educators and a drive to expand equity, we design innovative learning solutions that are more customizable, adaptable, and relevant — empowering students to learn, anytime, anywhere.

Employee Perspectives

Our Employee Perspectives

Helping students “grow into lifelong learners” — that’s what we do.

The joy of empowering students with the tools for self-discovery and the curiosity to explore the world around them — this is what motivates us. The promise of every student inspires us to take teaching and learning to the next level, to keep searching for new ways to make our learning solutions even more impactful for students and empowering for educators. Our team of employees, many of whom are former teachers, come to work with a singular desire: to make the world a better place, one classroom at a time. Here are some of their voices:

“As a former science teacher, I am excited to be part of a great team creating next-generation learning solutions geared toward the active, digital classroom. I'm driven by the vision of scenario-based science experiences that help today's learners see themselves as tomorrow's entrepreneurs, inventors, and leaders.”

- Michael
Savvas Marketing
Former science teacher

“As an educator who is deeply committed to cultivating inclusive learning communities, I am so proud to be part of a learning organization that champions representation in curriculum and provides teachers with vital tools and resources to support culturally responsive-sustaining education.”

- Meg
Savvas Curriculum Specialist
Former middle school and high school social studies teacher

"As a former classroom teacher, I appreciate the heart and dedication Savvas Learning Company has placed into developing strong active learning programs that support educator needs while providing the flexible learning experiences that help students grow into productive citizens and lifelong learners. Savvas listens to teachers, students, and parents to carry forth a high-quality learning experience while building and giving back to communities. I couldn't be prouder to be part of Savvas."

- Leone

Former elementary school teacher and high school teacher for theatre, speech and drop-out recovery remedial math

"Teaching is, in my humble opinion, the closest we get to touching real magic. What else would one call that passing of knowledge, and how it swirls and transforms as it interacts between teacher and students? At Savvas, you bring the magic, and we're here to support you with everything else."

- Mallory
Savvas Curriculum Specialist
Former High School English Teacher

"Teaching students to think beyond getting the correct answer is a key task in today’s classrooms. Yes, we want our students to be able to attain the right answer. However, a larger connected goal is getting students to be able to explain how they came to that answer; even if it's wrong. Developing students as critical thinkers is the vehicle that will serve them well, not only through their educational lives today, but even greater in their adult lives tomorrow." 

- Jamil
Savvas Curriculum Specialist
Former 3rd Grade Teacher

"As a former math teacher, I know first-hand the power of instructional technology. It allows a teacher to be more efficient by providing students with instant solution feedback and learning aids while enhancing student comprehension and instructional rigor. And students are empowered to learn mathematics in a way that includes video and animated tutorials while addressing the needs of high achieving students and those with gaps in their knowledge. The right instructional tools, paired with the right content, provide limitless possibilities."

- Ryan
Savvas Curriculum Specialist
