** States can more effectively report data on student groups. Here's how.
------------------------------------------------------------
A new brief from the DQC, Learning Heroes and National PTA, “Disaggregated Data: Not Just a Box Checking Exercise ([link removed]) ,” underscores that data broken down by different student groups is not only essential for understanding how schools serve different groups of students, but also key to identifying opportunity gaps and confronting persistent barriers to student success. State leaders must make sure that families have the data they deserve to ensure that their students get a high-quality, equitable education.
** States should consider replacing outdated and unfamiliar terms.
------------------------------------------------------------
State leaders can start with two simple steps to communicate the value of student group data.
Families and communities deserve to know whether their local schools are serving the needs of every student. But 41 states failed to include student performance information for at least one federally required student group on their report cards, and many did not include contextual language necessary for users to understand why the data is useful and how to use it. States can and should provide access to information about student peformance broken down by different student groups that is easy to access and interpret.
