A Discovery Education Case Study
Compton Unified School District faced challenges with low graduation rates and student achievement scores, particularly in mathematics. Seeking to close the opportunity gap, the district partnered with Discovery Education to implement its DreamBox Math solution, an adaptive learning program designed to provide personalized math instruction and address learning gaps.
Discovery Education's solution focused on three key areas: strategic communication of the program's purpose, ongoing data reviews to measure efficacy, and initiatives to boost student engagement. By implementing DreamBox Math, Compton Unified saw a dramatic increase in math achievement, with students gaining multiple grade levels of growth. The district also calculated a three-fold return on its investment, saving teachers countless hours on differentiated instruction while nearing a 90% on-time graduation rate.
