Make data work for your school—and for every student Far too often, educators are inundated with data that feels overwhelming, irrelevant, or unhelpful. In Using Data to Improve Schools, nationally recognized expert on school transformation and student achievement Elaine Allensworth offers a framework for understanding the critical properties of data and the tools educators need to focus on the metrics that matter most for student achievement. Rooted in two decades of research on educational policy and practice and real-world success stories from Chicago Public Schools, this groundbreaking guide bridges the gap between theory and practice, helping educators build a culture of data-driven collaboration and success. Topics covered include Common myths and assumptions that divert attention from the data that matter most Guidance on using systems for continuous improvement such as Early Warning Indicator (EWI) and Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) Tools to align teachers, families, and staff around a shared vision and strategies that build trust and momentum for sustainable growth Allensworth clearly outlines how schools can improve key performance areas—like attendance, test scores, and graduation rates—by identifying high-impact metrics and fostering a collaborative culture of improvement. By simplifying complex concepts and offering tools for effective collaboration, this guide inspires educators to turn numbers into positive change.
