There’s a lot that parents and communities can do to help their schools work better. But to improve your schools, you must first understand what’s happening in them. It would be best if you had facts. That’s where data comes in. It not only tells you what’s happening in your school now, it can help explain why it’s happening, what can be done to raise achievement and show you what good things can happen when educators, parents, and community members work together for the good of all students.
