“I wanted to see steady progression upward,” stated Dr. Brent Comer, superintendent of Mitchell Community Schools (MCS). “That's all we've seen with Edmentum. And to end the ’22–’23 school year, finding out that every grade level, K through 6, both in math and reading, were double digits higher than the national average—every grade level.”

MCS in Indiana serves a rural community of about 1,450 students. District leaders knew that they needed an approach that would both individualize instruction and engage students in meaningful learning, as well as ensure measurable academic growth across grade levels.

The district partnered with Edmentum to provide both trusted products and a strong relationship. With Exact Path, educators designed student-specific curriculum pathways that met learners where they were. Students responded with excitement, taking ownership of their learning and choosing to engage more deeply.

By the end of the 2022–23 school year, MCS saw powerful results—every grade level from K–6 performed double digits above the national average in both reading and math. For Dr. Comer, Edmentum’s impact was clear: students felt confident, teachers had the tools they needed, and the district saw proof that school can evolve to meet the needs of every learner.
