Montana to Implement DreamBox Math, Reading Plus Statewide for Grades 3–8

DreamBox Learning has been selected by the Montana Office of Public Instruction to provide its DreamBox Math and Reading Plus solutions to grades 3–8 statewide, according to a news release.

The deal will give 30,000 students access to the curriculum solutions from DreamBox, which was recently acquired by Discovery Education; both are rated “Strong” by Johns Hopkins' EvidenceforESSA.org.

DreamBox Math and DreamBox Reading Plus are “designed to adapt problems and questions based on how each student learns” alongside educator tools and resources to improve productivity and make personalized learning faster, the company said. The solutions complement educators’ use of Discovery Education Experience, which is also available to public schools statewide through Montana OPI.
