EdisonLearning Benchmarks

A “no-excuses” commitment to accountability

EdisonLearning’s commitment to student achievement and individualized learning led to the creation of Benchmarks, a uniquely powerful component of EdisonLearning™ School Designs.

How it works


The interim Benchmark assessments are designed to be administered monthly, within a single class period, beginning at grade 2 in the academic disciplines of reading and mathematics. Tests are automatically scored and results are instantly accessible by teachers and students. The variety of reports provides a powerful and immediate assessment of class and individual student strengths and weaknesses.
