For 30 years, the National Institute for Direct Instruction (NIFDI) has partnered with schools worldwide to improve the lives of all students. Please help us make a difference by donating during this season of Thanksgiving.

Your donation can help support our work in schools like:

• A very rural tribal K-12 school in Minnesota. The staff serves 213 Native American students. In 2021-22, 88% of students were below or well below BIE English Language Proficiency Standards. The school has implemented DI as its core English Language Arts program and partnered with NIFDI to improve student performance for two years. They are beginning to show strong results, such as fewer upper-grade students placing in Corrective Reading as a result of early intervention.
• A suburban school in Louisiana with 614 PK-5 students. At this school, 71% of students scored below the proficient level for reading. NIFDI is partnering to support staff in an intervention model for identified students. Based on the first-year results, the implementation is expanding this year.

We are launching a fundraising campaign with the goal of raising $10,000 to help schools like these implement Direct Instruction (DI) with fidelity. Your donation will support additional coaching and staff development, which are critical to students' success.
