Teachers are confident the PLI and Microsoft technology have had a direct impact on student achievement. "State testing has become increasingly rigorous in recent years. I got my test scores back, and students who didn't even come close to meeting standards in the past have met them this year. I believe this is a testament to the resources we're using."
