Engrade Makes the Difference

Location: MarylandSize: 110,000 studentsbcps.org

Challenge:Disconnected system

of resources

Engrade Implementation:One location for personalized

full-loop learning

Outcome:BCPS becomes more student-focused and

efficient

Result:Decrease in behavior and

attendance issues

In 2013, the Baltimore County Public Schools launched its Students & Teachers Accessing Tomorrow (STAT) initiative, a comprehensive effort to integrate technology across the district. As a key component of the initiative, BCPS envisioned a centralized digital learning ecosystem to facilitate planning, assessment, and communication for stakeholders across the education process—administrators, teachers, students and parents.

The district chose Engrade as the foundation for BCPS One, the site that brings together all of the district’s programs and initiatives around student data, assessments, curriculum, instruction, reporting and analysis. Previously BCPS housed these functions in separate systems with no capability to share meaningful information between them.

Today, Engrade’s connection capabilities enable BCPS to develop a complete picture of the learning cycle, drawing meaningful conclusions that help personalize learning and engage participants throughout the district.
