The Challenge

Cornerstone was using in-house spreadsheets to calculate student growth percentiles, but their numbers never matched NWEA's official reports. This discrepancy undermined confidence in their data for teacher evaluations and accountability reporting.

The Solution

AcumenEd replaced the manual calculation process with automated SCGP computation using the exact NWEA 2020 normative data and formula. Every calculation was validated against NWEA's official methodology.

The SCGP calculations match NWEA's official numbers within one percentile. We finally have growth data we can trust.
