District Report Card

Report cards are an important source of information about

performance and accountability. They allow districts to compare

data in a consistent way and highlight opportunities for

improvement.

This report card will show not only the achievement of students

overall, but also the progress that disaggregated groups are

making in closing achievement gaps. Report card data help

Pennsylvania school districts and the Pennsylvania Department

of Education focus on specic groups of students who are currently

not meeting academic standards.

The report card is designed to ensure that the public is fullyinformed about performance, and to promote broader

participation and better decisionmaking by providing a

shared source of performance data. This federal initiative is based

on the idea that a wellinformed public plays an important part

in school improvement.

Using Report Card DataReport cards should be used to share information. Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) is not

measured by the strength of this report card. The data on this report card may not matchAYP data published for this district.
