Harness the power of quality teaching
Children thrive when they have positive, nurturing relationships with their teachers.

Measure teaching quality

With versions for infants, toddlers, and pre-K programs, as well as K-3 classrooms, the CLASS® helps pinpoint areas where programs can guide quality improvement efforts.

Improve teaching quality

Provide teachers with CLASS®-based guidance on how to use standards-aligned materials effectively in their classrooms.

It is the ongoing, daily interactions with loving, emotionally responsive and caring adults-be they a teacher, a caregiver, an aunt, or a grandfather-that bring about healing.
