Turning Student Data Into Instructional Impact in the Classroom

At South Allegheny Middle School outside Pittsburgh, 6th-grade teacher Tony DiGiorgio needed a simpler way to make sense of student performance data coming from multiple tools and unify it into a single source of truth for meaningful instruction. McGraw Hill Plus solved that challenge by connecting student data with curriculum and personalized learning in one experience, giving South Allegheny teachers and students a clear, shared view of progress through the Standards & Skills Graph. As student work from ALEKS, our AI-powered adaptive learning solution, and Reveal Math flows into the graph, DiGiorgio and his students can quickly pinpoint strengths, identify gaps, and decide what to tackle next, helping translate performance data into timely, actionable instructional decisions.

The impact has been evident across both academic performance and student behavior. With a clearer understanding of their progress, students have taken greater ownership of their learning by setting goals, tracking growth, and making more informed decisions about where to focus. That visibility has driven stronger engagement and measurable results, with more students completing grade-level modules and moving on to more advanced work. For DiGiorgio, McGraw Hill Plus connects insight to action, helping him personalize instruction while giving students the confidence and momentum to keep moving forward.
