Discovery Education, National Heritage Academies Renew Partnership

CHARLOTTE, NC (Tuesday, February, 27, 2024) — Discovery Education today announced that it will continue its partnership with National Heritage Academies (NHA), which provides DreamBox Math by Discovery Education and supports students’ conceptual understanding of math as they grow confidence in the subject. 

DreamBox Math fosters the conceptual understanding, self-assurance, and motivation students need to develop a deep understanding of complex mathematical ideas. DreamBox Math is a web-based program for students in grades K-8 that adapts and differentiates in real-time based on students’ answers and problem-solving methods. By providing personalized instruction, DreamBox Math empowers students to become self-assured, lifelong learners, while equipping educators with actionable learning insights.  

“Discovery Education is proud to deepen its multi-year partnership with National Heritage Academies, as the missions of both organizations are aligned to supporting teachers and inspiring students,” said Judson Aungst, Discovery Education’s Vice President of Education Partnerships. “National Heritage Academies have an innovative approach to improving student achievement in math, and we are excited to continue to support their efforts.”   

NHA initially selected DreamBox Math for classroom use because it aligned to the school system’s vision for improving student outcomes in math and was simple to integrate into instruction. 

“DreamBox Math by Discovery Education’s rigorous and interactive lessons adapt to each student, providing a high-quality, personalized learning experience,” said Roberto Martinez, Executive Director of Curriculum and Instruction at NHA. “Thanks to this product, we’ve seen student engagement in math deepen and confidence in the subject grow. We are pleased to continue this powerful relationship, as it supports our efforts to prepare all learners for success beyond graduation.” 

In several NHA schools, DreamBox Math is used alongside Discovery Education Experience, the company’s award-winning K-12 learning platform, and Discovery Education Coding, the company’s innovative coding solution. 

All NHA educators also have access to the Discovery Educator Network. A global community of education professionals, the Discovery Educator Network connects members across school systems and around the world through social media, virtual conferences, and in-person events, fostering valuable idea sharing and inspiration.    

Headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan, NHA operates more than 100 schools across nine states serving more than 65,000 students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Providing students a rigorous college-prep education and a strong moral focus program, NHA seeks to help students develop the knowledge, skills, and moral strength they need to succeed in college, work, and life.
