Our History
Welcome to SPORK: Your All-in-One Solution for K-12 Math Curriculum
SPORK Math, created by the founders of BASIS Charter Schools, emerged in 2018 due to a change in the math curriculum they were using at the schools. The curriculum wasn't meeting the needs of today's students and not setting them up for success throughout their academic careers. BASIS Schools had great success with the new SPORK Math curriculum and have been recognized as a top charter school system in the U.S., including multiple schools rated in the top 5 STEM schools in the country.
This brings us to today, where we invite you to join forces with SPORK and provide your students the opportunity for better math results. We have the curriculum, the tools, and the results. Here's the proof. Let's make an impact on student success together!
