California: Charter school instructional funds

Still being approvedStatus as of October 15, 2026

California families use A New Page at home.

California charter funds do not pay us directly today, so families pay on their own: the family plan is $29 a month, the founding family price. Ask your charter whether it will take a receipt.

What A New Page is

A structured literacy reading program for kids who find reading hard, including dyslexia.

  • 15 minutes a night, side by side.
  • Your child reads the hero’s lines. You read the rest from a script.
  • Every line is built from sounds your child has already been taught.
  • A weekly report you can print for the teacher or IEP team.
  • For school-age readers (kindergarten to grade 12), placed by skill, never by grade. Littles (ages 3 to 4) are on the family plan.

Every child in the house, ages 3 to 18, on one plan. State funds do not pay for it today.

Built on the science of reading

A New Page is Structured Literacy: the explicit, systematic approach the International Dyslexia Association recommends, in the Orton-Gillingham tradition, for struggling and dyslexic readers.

Questions California parents ask

Can I use my instructional funds for A New Page?

Each California charter decides what its instructional funds buy, so ask your charter before you count on it. We give you an itemized receipt that lists A New Page as a structured-literacy reading curriculum. When state funds pay, the state's rule applies: one license, one student.

Reading has been a long fight. Does this help?

If reading has been a fight and the current plan is not moving the needle, A New Page starts your child at the right place and builds from there. Begin with the free reading check.

What does it cost?

The reading check is free for everyone. The program is a free week with no card, then $29 a month or $299 a year for the whole family, paid on your own. That’s the founding family price, and it stays yours for as long as you’re with us.

Will my price go up?

No. If you join now, you pay the founding family price, $29 a month or $299 a year, for as long as you’re with us. Pausing doesn’t change it. If our prices change later, that’s only for families who join after. On the year plan, your next year is $299 too.

Can a teacher or therapist see what we do at home?

Yes. In the app, open your child's reader and choose Share a reader. It gives you a code for that one child. The other grown-up opens anewpagereading.com/r, types the code and signs in with their own email. From then on you both see the same step, the same story and the same report, and either of you can stop sharing at any time.
