This week we've been mostly looking at data and how it can be helpful in educational situations. My school doesn't collect much data. We get ACT scores but I believer that's about it. My school's senior class has earned over $1 million in scholarships for the past several years, so we must be doing something right. Not bad for 45-55 students, eh?
I really feel like a lot of this week's work doesn't really apply to me. It's hard to find a similar school to compare ourselves to. The public schools in the area are larger plus we have to charge tuition so we can't even factor in enrollment as an indicator of classroom effectiveness.
Our students also come from a variety of public and private elementary and middle schools so we can't really use the data those schools collect to help us very much.
