Thursday November 21, 2024 11:00am - 11:45am CST
School leaders sift through enormous amounts of data to create and analyze reports that are concise, specific, and pertinent to the district’s governance goals, but then what? What role should the data you look at play in making informed, well rounded decisions? In this session, hear how Davenport Schools, Clear Lake Schools, and Garner-Hayfield-Ventura Schools work with Frontline Education to identify data reports that will help their board teams set and monitor goals, why that data is important to communicate, and how using that data can make difficult decisions easier.
