“In my opinion, the greatest benefit of working with Edmentum is the support,” declared A. Russell Hughes, superintendent of Walton County School District (WCSD). “Edmentum is not just a vendor to us, but it was a partner in educational leadership and making a difference.”

WCSD in Florida was struggling in 5th and  8th grade sciences, with one school ranked among the lowest 300 in the state. District leaders needed a way to turn performance around quickly and keep students engaged.

After introducing Edmentum solutions in 5th grade, the district’s lowest-performing school posted the highest science performance in the district in one year. Interactive lessons encouraged students to spend more time learning, while teachers and leaders benefited from ongoing partnership and support that ensured success.

What followed was a true game changer—students achieved at higher levels, teachers gained confidence in their classrooms, and leaders knew that they had a partner walking alongside them to realize results.
