Dundalk Middle School, Baltimore County School District, MD
Maryland High School Assessment math scores rise from 49% to 86% :
As an AYP (Achieving Yearly Progress) failing school, Dundalk Middle School was eligible to purchase the Algebra I curriculum with Title I funds. The Baltimore County School District has since implemented Carnegie Learning's Algebra I curriculum in three Title I middle schools and two high schools, and recently expanded the courses to include Carnegie Learning’s Algebra II software and Bridge to Algebra.
Carnegie Learning Implementation Boosts Algebra I Course Success to 86%
South Plainfield Public Schools, NJ :
South Plainfield High School, like every other high school in New Jersey, requires eleventh graders to take the High School Proficiency Assessment (HSPA). To pass this exam, students must have a proficient understanding of Algebra I and Geometry. With a good population of South Plainfield’s students taking a pre-algebra course in the ninth grade, it became a large concern that students would not excel as well on the HSPA if they did not reach an Algebra I course level by the ninth grade as recommended by education experts.
