New integration between McGraw Hill's core curricula and Renaissance assessments elevates data-driven instruction to support educators in driving learning outcomes
Launching nationwide for back-to-school 2026, the collaboration enables the connection of data between Renaissance Star Assessments and McGraw Hill's trusted math and literacy curricula to provide educators with clearer visibility into student progress while enabling more precise, actionable instruction across every classroom and grade.
Providing McGraw Hill curriculum insights within Renaissance Intelligence℠—Renaissance's new unified data and insights system—strengthens educators' abilities to connect assessment, instruction, and practice more meaningfully at scale. Renaissance Intelligence brings together previously siloed data streams, and this integration ensures that McGraw Hill curriculum sequences become a powerful part of that connected ecosystem.
The new integration also enables the seamless import of Star Math and Star Reading assessment data directly into the McGraw Hill Standards and Skills Proficiency Graph. This tool powers personalized learning within McGraw Hill's core curricula—including national Reveal Math, California Reveal Math, and across the country for the new McGraw Hill Literacy franchise for K–12: Emerge!, Summit!, and Soar!.
By merging multiple data sources, the Standards and Skills Proficiency Graph personalizes instruction for students and maps proficiency to state standards and skills, allowing teachers to quickly identify student needs, receive data-driven recommendations for individuals and groups, and access curated McGraw Hill resources. This process streamlines lesson planning and improves targeted support for all learners.
"Connected solutions like this are essential for supporting educators and students in today's classrooms," said Jana Thompson, Chief Product Officer at McGraw Hill K–12. "By uniting data from multiple sources—including assessments and curricula—educators gain a more comprehensive understanding of student progress and learning needs. This integrated approach not only helps teachers save valuable time but also empowers them to drive measurable progress by delivering more personalized learning experiences that meet each student's unique needs."
"Collaborating with McGraw Hill strengthens our commitment to bringing powerful, connected insights to every classroom," said Todd Brekhus, Chief Product Officer at Renaissance. "This integration is a key step forward for Renaissance Intelligence, enabling teachers to easily connect Star Assessments data with instructional content they trust. When educators can instantly see what students need—and access targeted resources with confidence—they unlock a new level of personalization and make meaningful learning gains possible for all students."
