Case Study: Pinellas County Schools achieves K-5 math growth with Discovery Education’s DreamBox Math

Pinellas County Schools boosts K-5 math achievement by 5+ percentile points in 8 weeks with Discovery Education

Pinellas County Schools (PCS) sought to drive K-5 student math achievement and address diverse learning needs, from remediation to enrichment. They turned to Discovery Education and implemented its DreamBox Math product across the district after a successful pilot.

Discovery Education's solution involved students using DreamBox Math for recommended weekly lessons. A study showed that in just eight weeks, students who completed the recommended five or more lessons per week scored over five national percentile points higher than low-usage peers. The evidence of impact was validated by a third-party review, aligning with ESSA Level III promising evidence standards.
