ClassGaga Announces National Partner School Network and Publishes Featured School Story

Princeton, NJ. ClassGaga today announced its national Partner School Network, a growing group of schools working directly with the company to develop, test, and refine AI-powered math instruction in real classrooms.

The network currently includes nine schools across six states: Our Lady of Lourdes and Hillel Academy of Dayton in Ohio; the School District of Thorp and Sacred Heart Catholic School in Wisconsin; Pillars Preparatory Academy in New Jersey; Preston High School and St. Catharine Academy in New York; Vida School in California; and Holy Trinity Lutheran School in Florida.

Together, these schools represent a cross-section of K-12 education, including public schools and independent schools. Through the Partner School Program, participating schools help shape product development, implementation models, and case study materials as ClassGaga continues expanding its work with schools nationwide.

As part of this effort, ClassGaga has published a featured Partner School story from Our Lady of Lourdes in Cincinnati, Ohio. Materials now available on ClassGaga’s schools page include a public video case study, research reports, and a one-page implementation brief documenting how the school is using ClassGaga in practice.

“ClassGaga has helped us get to every student,” said Ms. Allie Lampe, Principal of Our Lady of Lourdes.

Additional Partner School stories and case studies are in development and will be released over time as implementations progress. Hillel Academy of Dayton is among the next schools to be featured.

“ClassGaga is a game changer. I recommend using it,” said Dr. Anna Smith, Head of School at Hillel Academy of Dayton.

Partner Schools also receive access to ClassGaga Labs, where selected new tools are made available before broader release. The latest tool currently available through Labs is IEP & Goals, which helps teachers draft annual math IEP goals, short-term objectives, and benchmarks for individual students, with the option to incorporate recent ClassGaga student data. Feedback from Partner School educators will help inform continued refinement of the tool.

The Partner School Network is distinct from the ClassGaga Math Learning Program grant initiative. In addition to its Partner Schools, ClassGaga has also listed selected Spring 2026 grantee schools on its website. The company has opened its Fall 2026 grant cycle for eligible schools, districts, and nonprofit organizations serving grades 1-12.

A small K-8 school. ~200 students. A nearby school closed, and suddenly every grade had kids at all different levels.

They needed targeted math support for every child but didn't have the staff to do it.

ClassGaga became the answer. Teachers use it during class, flex time, and intervention. Live data helps them group students and guide instruction. And something unexpected happened: students who used to be afraid to admit they were struggling started speaking up.

ClassGaga Announces Spring 2026 Grant Recipients and Expanded AI Tools for Math Instruction

ClassGaga today announced the recipients of its Spring 2026 ClassGaga Math Learning Program grants, supporting a multi-state cohort of schools implementing personalized, standards-aligned math instruction powered by AI. The Spring 2026 cohort builds on insights from prior grant cycles and reflects major platform upgrades shaped directly by teacher and school feedback.

The Spring 2026 grants provide full funding for ClassGaga licenses, analytics, AI tools, and professional learning, enabling schools to focus on instructional quality and student learning without budget barriers.

The Spring 2026 cohort includes schools serving diverse student populations across multiple states:

- School District of Arcadia — Wisconsin
- Gregg County Special Education SSA — Texas
- Wayzata High School — Minnesota
- Ella P. Stewart Academy for Girls — Ohio
- Ridgeway IB Middle School — Tennessee
- St. Alphonsus Catholic School — California
- Manhattan Charter School — New York
- New York School for the Deaf — New York

(Additional recipient schools may be announced as implementation begins.)

The ClassGaga Math Learning Program is designed to support students in grades 1 through 12, with curriculum coverage through Algebra 2. Schools in the Spring 2026 cohort may implement ClassGaga as a stand-alone curriculum or as a supplemental program integrated into existing instructional blocks, while using real-time mastery data to guide instructional decisions.

A defining feature of the program is its emphasis on actionable insight for educators. Teachers and administrators receive access to Insight360 analytics and Coach Gaga, an AI-powered educator agent that translates student performance data into concrete next steps, including targeted scaffolds and instructional resources.

Spring 2026 grant recipients will be among the first cohorts to fully benefit from significant upgrades to the ClassGaga platform, introduced for 2026 after extensive collaboration with partner schools.

Key updates include:
- New Math Teacher Tools that centralize lesson planning, workbook creation, and progress communication
- Coach Gaga and Insight360 accessible directly from the Teacher Portal home page, reducing clicks and making high-impact insights easier to reach
- Improved grade-level alignment for early learners, strengthening visibility into early math development

These enhancements were designed to improve educator workflows while preserving the core classroom experience. No new training is required for teachers to begin using the upgraded Teacher Portal, and optional spring sessions will be available for schools that want deeper support.

As with prior grant cycles, Spring 2026 recipients participate in a structured implementation partnership that includes up to six hours of customized professional learning, delivered based on school needs. Returning partner schools will receive dedicated sessions focused on advanced use of the new Math Teacher Tools and deeper application of Coach Gaga and Insight360.

Selected schools will also be offered a tailored impact study examining student progress and implementation outcomes over the grant period. Findings contribute to ClassGaga’s ongoing research efforts and broader understanding of effective math instruction across grade levels.

The Spring 2026 cohort reflects ClassGaga’s continued commitment to building with schools. Insights from earlier grant cycles have informed both platform design and program structure, reinforcing ClassGaga’s focus on coherence, usability, and instructional relevance.

“We see these grants as true partnerships,” said Dr. Jeff Wang, Chief Learning Officer at ClassGaga. “Each cohort helps us refine how AI and data can meaningfully support teachers while strengthening math learning for students.”

An actionable view of math learning across your school.

We recently published a walkthrough of the ClassGaga Teacher Portal, designed to give instructional leaders a coherent view of student mastery and support needs while keeping teacher workflows simple.

The portal supports:

- School- and class-level visibility into math mastery by domain and concept
- Clear identification of students who need intervention or enrichment
- A shared data view that informs instructional planning and leadership conversations

For administrators responsible for instructional outcomes and coherence across classrooms, this walkthrough shows how ClassGaga is designed to support that work:

ClassGaga Study Alert: The Math Cliff is Real. Why Grades 4 & 5 Matter Most!

ClassGaga has published its multi-school analysis of math learning, based on over 120,000 student practice attempts across our partner schools. The data confirms a critical pattern in K-12 math: the foundations are strong, but mastery drops sharply where whole numbers transition to fractions and division.

Key Findings from the ClassGaga Report:

Strong Foundation: Students in Grades 1–3 mastered more than 90% of attempted concepts.

The Tipping Point: Mastery plummets in Grades 4 and 5, with Grade 5 hitting the lowest average mastery rate at 59.6%.

Toughest Domains: The most difficult subjects were Fractions (56.3%) and Statistics & Probability (53.2%).

The Core Struggle: Concepts requiring students to choose a strategy (like multi-step word problems) are consistently challenging.

The takeaway for administrators and educators: The Grade 4–5 bridge is the most critical infrastructure for student success in algebra and beyond.
