Data Analysis Process

Action Planning/Data Monitoring and Reporting

The data team developed specific action steps for the Continuous Improvement Plan based on the Price’s reading goals, a comprehensive action plan that outlines the strategies and interventions needed to address the identified challenges, and a system for ongoing data monitoring to track progress.

Data Review and Evaluation

The data team reviewed SY23 Spring MAP data, Ga Milestones data, and IXL data to identify trends, patterns, and areas where the school is performing well or facing challenges. This involves both quantitative and qualitative data.

Identify Root Cause

The data team analyzed the data and used the five why data analysis protocol to identify the root causes of any issues or challenges contributed to Price’s performance in Reading.
