Case Study: Buckhorn Creek Elementary Boosts Math Proficiency with Discovery Education's DreamBox Math

Buckhorn Creek Elementary boosts math proficiency from 63.1% to 76.1% with Discovery Education

Buckhorn Creek Elementary, a school in the Wake County Public School System, faced the challenge of improving math proficiency levels and supporting diverse student needs in the post-pandemic landscape. The school partnered with Discovery Education, utilizing their DreamBox Math solution to personalize instruction and address learning loss.

Discovery Education's DreamBox Math was implemented school-wide as a supplemental tool, enabling personalized learning and independent student work. This allowed teachers to focus on small-group instruction while students progressed at their own pace. The consistent usage of DreamBox Math, supported by a strong school culture, led to dramatic results: math proficiency rose from 63.1% to 76.1% over three years, and the school's growth metric improved from -7.31 to +7.88, far exceeding expectations.
