About North Star
North Star Educational Tools was created due to the high demand from teachers and literacy coordinators to have a more concise and efficient report to allow them to view a whole classroom at a glance. With NSET’s more comprehensive reports, the teachers at Lincoln School in the Brainerd School District have decreased their Learning Disability population by 66%.
North Star was started in Minnesota (The North Star State) and was in the local newspaper there in 2012 for the advancements being made in the 4th largest school district in the state, Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan. Please check out the article here.
