Monitoring IEP Goals with Integrity at Georgia Cyber Academy
Georgia Cyber Academy (GCA) needed a reliable way to monitor student progress on Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals across 11,000 virtual students. By implementing Formative, GCA transitioned from fragmented tools to a centralized bank of skills-based assessments that ensure compliance and instructional growth for students of all abilities.
