Some of the many success stories...
Technology
captures self-motivation
Between
lectures, students at Kelly Middle School practice on
computer-generated quizzes. The penciled-in form is fed
into the computer, which generates a new quiz containing harder
questions for topics where the student is succeeding, but
simpler questions in areas where they are struggling. Read more about

More classes,
higher achievement
Science and
math have been added at South Eugene High thanks to
parent gifts. Additional staffing, a frequent focus in schools,
has multiple benefits: extra sections serve more
students, and they open up a course to students who had been
prevented from enrolling due to scheduling conflicts.

Reading speed
predicts success
Students
with low reading speed (called “low fluency”) benefit most from quick intervention. It
turns out that fluency is a powerful predictor of many reading
skills, and alone would be adequate to identify who needs extra
help.
