A school is a data warehouse!Information is packaged in a number of different ways.
Assessment scores (i.e. FCAT, SAT, ACT) Teacher-made exam/quiz results Activities/assignments Observations Student-portfolios and notebooks Attendance tracking Conference logs Surveys/feedback forms

NEXT STEPS
Provide additional support
Pull data from multiple -sources
Provide enrichment to those who initially mastered the skill
Track/monitor along each step
