Vaughn Next Century Learning Center Selects Achievement Series for Use With Their Performance Pay Models.
EAGAN, MN (September 24, 2010) Scantron announces that Vaughn Next Century Learning Center in Pacoima, CA has selected Achievement Series to use as a value-added assessment system. Achievement Series is a powerful web-based assessment solution that allows K-12 educators to develop and administer online and paper-based tests, capture immediate results, and produce standards-based reports. Used for all grade levels and subject areas, this solution gives administrators and teachers the data they need to monitor student progress and guide instruction.
Vaughn Next Century Learning Center was introduced to Scantron and Achievement Series at the California Charter Schools Conference in March, 2010. They were impressed by the technology, ease of use, customer service, and accessibility to 3rd-party content and resources offered by this web-based solution.
After a follow-up meeting with Scantron, Vaughn decided that Achievement Series was the best assessment system available to help determine bonuses for teachers based on the “Performance Pay Models.” Vaughn is well-recognized for its Performance Pay Models, which they have implemented for over two years.
