“From the value-added executive summary reports that allow us to readily identify focus areas at the district and building levels to the interactive assessment seminars—these initiatives have helped transform our teachers and accelerate their instructional efforts. Being a member of SOAR has been extremely beneficial and complementary to our school improvement process.”
    Jennifer Wene, Director, Teaching & Learning, Worthington City School District

“The value-added information I receive from SOAR has been the sole catalyst for many of the changes in my curriculum and instruction in my first seven years of teaching. The increase in my students’ value-added scores over the years is directly attributable to my use of value-added information to make decisions about what I teach, how I teach and how I assess student learning.”
    Katie Hartley, Teacher, Miami East Local School District

“SOAR has provided additional information about our students’ progress, which we have never had before. This allows us to provide more meaningful professional development.”
    Gene T. Harris, Superintendent, Columbus Public Schools
