Cambium serves as a leader in the education space, helping millions of educators and students feel more universally valued each and every day.

Lexia, a Cambium company, was founded in 1984 by Bob Lemire. Bob wasn’t a reading specialist or researcher and he wasn’t looking for a new career; he was already a well-respected investment advisor and land-use consultant. What Bob Lemire did have, though, was a son diagnosed with dyslexia.
Today, Lexia serves more than 5.5M students across more than 3,300 school districts. We continue to lead our field in developing innovative approaches to literacy’s biggest challenges, and are committed to leading the change that education needs.
We are #AllforLiteracy
