© 2025 Vista Higher Learning Reading and Writing Growth with Vista’s Engage 16 Table 5 shows how students moved between reading proficiency levels after Engage instruction. Table 5 Reading Proficiency Changes After Instruction To: Basic To: Intermediate To: Proficient From: Basic 124 12 10 From: Intermediate 2 2 8 From: Proficient 1 2 10 About 7% of students initially Basic reached Proficient, and 8% advanced to Intermediate. Among those initially Intermediate, roughly two-thirds attained Proficient, indicating steady reading progress across levels. Table 6 presents movement between writing proficiency levels following use of the program. Table 6 Writing Proficiency Changes After Instruction About 3% of Basic students reached Proficient and 11% moved to Intermediate. Of those initially Intermediate, 64% achieved Proficient, evidence of meaningful writing growth. The story told by the classification data is largely consistent with what we saw for the mean scores, SD, and e ect sizes. The results for both reading and writing paint a picture of growth, albeit modest. For writing (see Table 6), students showed upward movement across proficiency levels after instruction with Engage. About 3% of those who began at the Basic level reached Proficient, and another 11% advanced to Intermediate. Among students who began at the Intermediate level, roughly 64% achieved Proficient status—evidence of meaningful writing growth associated with the program.
