The purpose of the data dashboard is to establish the strategic indicators that the Superintendent will regularly communicate to the Governing Board and public.
These indicators will provide a comprehensive snapshot of the operational health of the District and progress towards the Boards strategic goals. By enabling our various stakeholders to more easily monitor District performance, our objective is to create a focus among staff and the community to propel our students to high achievement.
The purpose of the data dashboard policy is to improve the oversight and communication of District performance. This is supported by the Board adopted policies on Core Beliefs and Commitments, Theory of Action and Management Oversight.
