Student Growth Measures

Student Growth Measures are tools used to assess how much a student improves academically over time, rather than just how they perform at a single point. They compare a student’s current test scores to their previous scores, providing insight into their learning progress. This helps educators identify students’ individual development, tailor instruction, and evaluate teaching effectiveness. Instead of focusing solely on snapshot scores, growth measures emphasize progress, ensuring all students are recognized for their improvement regardless of their starting point.
