Case Study: Ludington High School achieves a 97% graduation rate and 20-point SAT increase with Edmentum Courseware

Custom Service for a Custom Solution in Ludington

Ludington High School in Ludington, MI (700 students, grades 9–12) needed a blended learning solution that could be customized to address two opposite needs: focused credit recovery for students who narrowly missed passing and more rigorous options for high-achieving students in a small, budget-constrained school. Principal Dan Mesyar and school leaders prioritized flexibility so the system would supplement — not replace — their existing instruction.

They adopted Edmentum Courseware, which enabled individualized mastery-based recovery, expanded elective and AP offerings (now nine), and responsive customer support working with the school’s online learning instructor. Outcomes included a graduation rate increase from 88% to 97%, a 20-point average SAT gain over three years, and an upgrade from a U.S. News bronze to silver medal.
