NEW YORK, Dec. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Scrible was named winner of the inaugural 2021 Supes' Choice Awards for College and Career Readiness by the Institute for Education Innovation (IEI), an organization serving as the bridge between district leaders and organizations to support the greatest challenges in K-12 education. Scrible was also a Finalist in the Literacy Instructional Solution and Critical Thinking Instructional Solution categories.
Scrible was selected by a panel of esteemed superintendent judges from across the nation and was assessed based on Scrible's commitment to student outcomes, innovation and ingenuity, customer support, interactivity and engagement. The Supes' Choice Awards are the only industry awards judged exclusively by school district superintendents.
"We're honored to be recognized by the Supes' Choice Awards as the inaugural winner of the College and Career Readiness category," said Victor Karkar, CEO of Scrible. "This recognition by district leaders serves as a testament to the great need to better prepare secondary students with the research and writing skills they need to succeed in college and beyond. We also support the transition to college by allowing students to take their Scrible accounts with them to college after graduating high school."
"At IEI, we are committed to improving students' outcomes and supporting effective, sustainable solutions to age-old problems in education," said Doug Roberts, Founder and CEO, Institute for Education Innovation. "The Supes' Choice Awards provide a very unique opportunity for companies to not only get their products and solutions in front of district decision makers, but to also pursue recognition for their work with a prestigious, new industry award."
Recipients of the Supes' Choice Award were recognized at a hybrid gala held on December 9, 2021, where the judges gathered in New York City and the event was live-streamed for all award applicants. Along with the designation of being the winner, companies were provided with written and verbal feedback during the judging process.
