The prospect of further innovations fueled by deeper integration between the companies is exciting news for Garden City Public Schools. “The amount of time spent collecting data has been drastically reduced which allows our teachers more time to analyze student performance, collaborate with other professionals and collectively develop a plan of support for students. “This past school year has demonstrated to us the power and benefit of using solutions from both FastBridge Learning and Illuminate Education,” said Crystal Steinmetz, Director of Curriculum and Assessment at Garden City Public Schools USD #457. These capabilities empower educators in understanding the unique needs of each student, equipping them with the tools needed to serve the whole child. The FastBridge Learning acquisition puts the finishing piece in place to realize Illuminate Education’s vision to simplify formative assessments for teachers, saving them time and guiding them through evidence-based student instruction and data-driven intervention. Nearly one year ago, Illuminate Education transformed the assessment space and took a giant step toward its vision of supporting educators by providing “a holistic view of the child on a single pane of glass” when it merged five companies serving approximately 15 million K-12 students. We welcome FastBridge to the Illuminate family.”
“They share our enthusiasm for sustainable MTSS, support for educators, open standards and interoperable solutions.
“FastBridge Learning has a remarkable history of adding research-driven innovation to assessments while consistently providing exceptional attention to districts,” said Christine Willig, CEO of Illuminate Education. The combination formalizes a long-time partnership between Illuminate Education and FastBridge Learning, aligning the technology, people, and processes required to support the whole child through data and a tiered instructional model.
