Why Data?

Everything we do is informed by data. Regardless of the audience, regardless of the setting, the data are our most effective tools to illustrate the problems and move toward solutions.

Empowering You to Use Education Data

The Education Trust–West works with educators, policymakers, parents, and community groups around the state to focus efforts on closing the achievement gap. We work closely with organizational leaders to deepen understanding of the data and reporting methods used to analyze student achievement. Data plays a critical role in helping identify what works—so we can replicate it—or diagnose what's broken—so we can fix it.

Using tools that analyze standards, schedules, data, curriculum and assignments, The Education Trust–West helps education stakeholders:

• Create community data portraits
• Understand the stories data tell
• Monitor student education
