OVERVIEW
During the 2020–2021 academic year, White County Schools

implemented Imagine Edgenuity English Language Arts and Math

courses with students in Grades 7–9. On average, students used

Imagine Edgenuity ELA courses for 45 hours and 96% of students

completed their course. In math, students used the course an

average of 36 hours and 62% of students completed their course.

To measure the impact of Imagine Edgenuity on reading and math

skills, Imagine Learning analyzed MAP Growth Reading data from 26

Imagine Edgenuity students and 26 nonparticipating peers, as well

as MAP Growth Math data from 45 Imagine Edgenuity students and

45 nonparticipating peers.

RESULTS

From Fall 2020 to Spring 2021, Imagine Edgenuity students exhibited

significantly greater gains than their nonparticipating peers on

the MAP Growth Reading test (Figure 1). Notably, the performance

of Edgenuity ninth-grade students improved by seven Rasch Unit

(RIT) score points on the MAP Growth Reading test, while their

nonparticipating peers declined by four. Additionally, 65% of Imagine

Edgenuity users met expected growth on MAP Growth Reading,

compared to 42% of non-users. When examining performance on the MAP Growth Math test, similar trends emerged.

Imagine Edgenuity students demonstrated significantly greater growth than their peers (Figure 2). Further, 64% of

Imagine Edgenuity users exceeded expected growth on MAP Growth Math, compared to 38% of non-users.
