Built to HB 1416 Standards

Texas HB 1416 requires districts to provide accelerated instruction students who did not meet expectations on the STAAR® science. Accelerated Science is built specifically to meet those requirements — with structured intervention sequences, built-in progress monitoring, and TEKS-aligned content that drops cleanly into your district's HB 1416 plan.

No Wasted Time

One less test to give. Upload official STAAR® scores from Elementary, Middle School, or Biology, and Accelerated Science builds a Personalized Learning Plan for every student automatically — no separate placement test required. The Prioritization Engine sequences each plan from the strand with the greatest need to the least, so every minute of the remediation window counts, and every plan meets HB 1416 accelerated instruction requirements.

Growth Assessments pair with Accelerated Science to show districts BOY-to-EOY progress for students in accelerated instruction, with TEKS-aligned reports at the student, campus, and district level.

The Accelerated Science Trek

Every student's journey to mastery is mapped, paced, and personalized.

Score Upload

Districts upload official STAAR® scores — no new placement test required. Students start their Personalized Learning Plan on day one.

Prioritization Engine

The lowest-scoring strands move to the front of the Trek. Every minute of remediation targets the student's biggest gaps first.

Built-In Progress Monitoring

Teachers track student PLP progress in real time. Campus and district leaders see exactly where every student stands — and how fast they're closing the gap.

Mastery Validation

As students complete their PLP Trek, mastery is verified through TEKS-aligned checks that mirror STAAR® rigor. Students don’t just progress — they demonstrate readiness.

Streamlined Reports

Teachers see real-time PLP progress, mastery gains, and learn where each student needs more support. Campus and district leaders get focused views built around the student progress.

The District Instructional Calendar tracks pacing against real classroom days, so every report reflects real progress, not estimates.
