Focus Instructional Spending in the Right Areas
Core instruction is the most crucial driver of academic success, and the largest single investment most districts make. It’s also the most complex to evaluate. Our Return on Instruction (ROI) platform helps district leaders measure the value of Tier 1 instruction by answering critical questions such as:
Where are instructional strategies succeeding or falling short? And for whom?
Does classroom mastery match student performance data?
Should we reallocate funds towards instructional gaps or resource-related issues, or both?
Are there trends or gaps in access, engagement, and outcomes by cohort, grade, or program?
Zoom Out or Drill Down: Reporting for Every Level
As school budgets tighten, improving core instruction—rather than relying on costly Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions—is a crucial strategy for maintaining student support. That’s why our reports offer insights to determine whether your most critical investment is delivering the best results possible.
Pinpoint Grade Inflation and Deflation Trends
If your students’ GPAs are increasing while their standardized test scores are declining, there’s a gap that needs to be addressed. Our ACE report helps leaders pinpoint what those gaps are by identifying classrooms with patterns of grade inflation or deflation.
Assess the Assessments
ROI surfaces whether benchmark assessments are effectively evaluating if students are progressing toward mastery of state standards, or if funds could be better invested in different assessments that are more tightly aligned with state summative assessments.
Meet the Demands of New State Legislation
To meet state literacy and numeracy requirements, Tier 1 instruction must be effective, engaging, and tailored to individual student needs. This ensures students are prepared for advanced learning as they progress to each grade. ROI helps you check your data in real time, so you can see if students are on track to meet state goals.

Jennifer Bowles
Initially, the goal was about setting the bar for curriculum performance and ensuring consistency across the district. But the ability with ROI to drill down into specific student groups has been a game changer for us.
Richard Dennis
ROI helps us see at both a macro and micro level which academic investments are having the biggest impact on learning, so we can do more of what works and less of what doesn’t.
Corey Uselton
[The] Principals and teachers know we’re going to look at these reports quarterly and develop action plans as a result. ROI allows us to have those critical conversations about instructional quality.
