Waterford aims to give every child the best education possible by fusing technology and education. Our approach is to start educating children while they are young—the time when education has the most impact.

Waterford combines technology and education to give children instruction that is individualized and reproducible. Waterford’s unique technology constantly monitors each student's mastery of skills and then adapts instruction to meet each student’s needs.

Not only does technology make Waterford instruction effective, it is also makes the instruction engaging and affordable. Waterford courseware is filled with exciting graphics, music, and game-like components that delight children. Moreover, Waterford offers research-based, individual instruction at a fraction of the cost of traditional reforms (which may require training, tutors, materials, etc.).

In 1989, Waterford participated in the New York City Public Schools Integrated Systems Project. This $10 million study revealed that educational intervention is needed at an early age because without early intervention, an achievement gap develops between at-risk and average students.

To combat this achievement gap, Waterford products, such as Waterford Early Reading Program™, Waterford Early Math and Science™, and Rusty and Rosy Learn with Me™, provide a solid foundation for preschool, kindergarten, and grade-school students early, before the obstacles to learning overwhelm them.

By intervening early—with technology, teacher, student, and family working together—Waterford ensures that each student, regardless of primary language or beginning level of literacy, is bound for success.
