Texas Randomized Controlled Trial (2022–2024) | RAND
A large-scale randomized controlled trial, conducted across 10,000 students in grades 3–5 in 64 schools in a large urban Texas district, found causal evidence of positive, statistically significant impacts of Zearn on student math achievement, as measured by the nationally normed NWEA MAP Growth assessment.

Louisiana Quasi-Experimental Design Study (2023–2024) | CRRE AT JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
A quasi-experimental study (2023–2024) of over 7,000 students in grades 4–8 in three suburban and rural Louisiana districts found districts using Zearn with dedicated implementation support (e.g, school coaching, educator training, usage monitoring) significantly outperformed peers on the state math assessment.
