NIET Spotlighted as Key Support in Indiana District’s Proficiency Gains

In the face of statewide challenges to elevate English and Math state scores in Indiana, Nettle Creek Schools in Wayne County is one district leading the charge to increase proficiency in both subjects for their county.

Western Wayne News covered Nettle Creek’s growth in the ILEARN scores and interviewed Superintendent Emily Schaeffer, who noted that the district’s partnership with NIET has provided a “district-wide common language and instructional framework” for the past four years, contributing to the growth seen in state scoring.

Our teachers have embraced and implemented these practices in every classroom — and it’s paying off for our students. We’re excited to see this growth in our school data and are determined to build on this momentum to achieve even greater gains next year.
