Currently in Beta, Brydge4Schools, the first project of DR Squared Inc., is a mobile application that provides parents with greater transparency around the daily academic content while allowing teachers to push the curriculum to the home. Parents that use Brydge4Schools have an entry point into a meaningful dialogue with their student around specific academic material learned that day. Parents are now partners in learning, and student achievement increases from confidence and preparedness.Brydge4Schools recognizes when parents have not interacted with the daily content, and sends follow-up reminders to increase parental involvement with the curriculum. When teachers use Brydge4Schools, at-home parent engagement increases to 80%.We are bridging the gap between parents and teachers.*4.0 Schools: Essentials Program, Summer 2016*The Lean Lab: Incubator Fellowship, Summer 2016*4.0 Schools: Tiny Fellowship, Fall 2016
