December 2023 release: Standard Education v1.4

New Features

Georgia EOC / EOG school comparison Dashboards— A new dashboard that highlights differences between schools. This uses publicly available data from the GA Dept of Education website. EOG and EOC are milestone assessments used in the state of GA. Data down to the school level is publicly available. We’ve taken that data and created dashboards that can:

• Show Math and ELA by school
• Show reading at or above grade level
• Show year over year progress by school (bottom chart)

Note: we support student level dashboards for this, however, that data is not publicly available. The district will need to provide that data

MAP Growth Dashboards — Imagine being able to combine longitudinal assessment data like MAP Growth with real-time insights like attendance, behavior referrals, and grades. Our MAP dashboards allow you to combine all of these.

• MAP Growth is one of the leading providers of assessments to measure achievement and growth in the K-12 space. With our 1.4 release, we now have the ability to include MAP Reading and MAP Math data in our dashboards. This is searchable by school, quintile, race, and a variety of customizable indicators.
• The Student dashboard has also been updated to include MAP scores. You now have one place to see a composite view of a student including their current grades, last semester grades, MAP data, SRSS-IE data, attendance, and behavior referrals (among other data points).
