Abstract: This report focuses on Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District's 2022-2023 implementation of "My Math Academy" with Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade students across its 17 elementary schools. Students' program usage has been associated with significant improvements on CIRCLE Progress Monitoring Assessment System (pre-K) and on iStation (Kindergarten). This study builds on the existing evidence by demonstrating the effectiveness of the program as measured by Northwest Evaluation Association (NWEA) Measures of Academic Progress (MAP). This report compares the performance of different progress groups in each grade (low, medium, high) as well as between the students in each grade who used the program (treatment) and their peers who did not (comparison). Greater progress in "My Math Academy" was associated with statistically significantly higher performance on the end-of-year NWEA MAP, and 9 out of every 10 educators reported majority of their students demonstrating skills they learned in "My Math Academy" outside of the program.
