Preparing the next generation of learners. We started ClassOwl to help students leverage technology to form better time management, organization, and communication habits in school. ClassOwl is an interactive assignment and planning application that bridges the information gap between teachers and their students. ClassOwl allows teachers to communicate what is expected once. The student has their ClassOwl planner across every device with built in homework reminders and deadlines. It frees up the teacher’s time because students have exactly the information they need to come to class more prepared. Our student pilots resulted in grade improvements, fewer late assignments, and less daily stress. Teachers noticed a decrease in the number of emails pertaining to assignment clarification and instructions. Are you a teacher that’s looking for a simple way to improve your classroom? We're now bringing on college and high school teachers who want to be involved with our private beta!

Our mission is simple: ensure every student gets a world-class education. Every classroom has students at many different levels. In fact, close to 75% of classrooms have students with reading levels that span across more than four grade levels! Yet, most teachers are only provided with resources that teach one specific level. To overcome this, teachers work nights and weekends to find the perfect piece of content for each of their students. Then, during the day, they work with their classes in small groups so they can personalize their instruction as best they can. Teachers are doing this all on their own and they deserve our help. That’s why, at Freckle, we provide teachers the resources and data they need to teach all of their students at the level that’s best for them.
