Back-to-school season is in full swing! Read more from our experts on eSchool News. "There continues to be a disconnect between how students are doing academically and how parents think their children are doing in school. In the 2024-2025 school year, we will need to bridge gaps between school and home to engage parents in academic recovery efforts." – Jacob Bruno "In this post-COVID and ESSER funding era, single point in time data will lose its relevance if it is not connected to the fuller picture of student academic health. We must continue to innovate, use technology wisely, and provide cohesive, holistic platforms that truly simplify educators’ lives and drive student growth. That’s what you should expect to see from HMH and NWEA." – Chris Minnich
