I'm curious how y'all plan to address one of the markets that need this the most -- public schools in the American South? Those schools are notoriously underfunded, so how do y'all plan to overcome budget issues? Sounds like you know what you're doing with the "budget line item process", so I'm curious to hear what you might have in mind.
With that said, most of my knowledge is about Mississippi. We have tons of problems with our public education system. Budget constraints are always a big issue for teachers, and one that might make it difficult to adopt a new program.

If you're trying to make an impact in Mississippi, the Barksdale Reading Institute works in this space: https://msreads.org/.
