Welcome to the Department of Data Analytics, Accountability, and Evaluation! Our mission is to transform information into actionable insights that drive improvements for our educators and students across our district.

Our department leads the district's progress monitoring, evaluation, and data analytics initiatives. This includes:

• Coordinating and administering required national, state, and local assessments
  
  
• Creating and improving data systems and structures that allow for deeper insight and action across departments, schools, and communities.
  
  
• ensuring accountability, which includes maintaining the accuracy of data and evaluating the effectiveness of students, teachers, schools, and programs through school grades, teacher evaluations, and program evaluations.
  
  
• Facilitating the approval process for research activities conducted by outside agencies within our schools, as well as coordinate and assist with in-district research efforts. We also work with our staff attorney's office and an internal review board to approve data-sharing agreements with outside agencies.

Every student has a right of privacy in the educational records kept by the School Board. The records are confidential under federal and state law, and may not be released by school employees except as provided in Board Policy 8350.
