Looking at Data Three levels of Data: – Strategic: Big picture – BOE, ISBE – Tactical: School/District Improvement Planning – Operational: Building/Teacher level that can inform practice District Leadership Data Working Group will create guidelines about reporting of data to help support use of data at all three of these levels District Administration is actively pursuing new tools and technologies to help strengthen operational data

Discipline Data State implemented new reporting procedures in fall of 2009 that require that district report all In and Out of School Suspensions by student to ISBE’s Student Information System (SIS) District has been working with Skyward to improve discipline reporting on the Tactical and Operational levels of data. In fall of 2009, all elementary schools began using SWIS (swis.org) to track discipline data to provide more Operational data for principals and teachers

Discipline Data Continued The Strategic Data is presented as a percentage (%) of enrollment by building or district because it provides a more accurate view of building climate than raw numbers District administration looks at both Strategic and Tactical data to provide support, training, and interventions where needed
