A story about turning K-12 data into instructional action

From a view at 30,000 ft
to a student in Room 214.

What's missing is the connective tissue between the board's strategic goals and a kid who's five absences behind in Algebra I.

HIGHEST LEVERAGE MOVE FOR TODAY'S CLASSAdd to Notes
Before introducing Completing the Square today, spend 5 minutes reviewing factoring since several struggling students missed that step on last week's quiz. During guided practice, consider placing Marcus H. and Alex J. in supportive small groups so they get the repetition and peer support they respond well to.

Strived Insight
Sarah is on track in three of her five classes. The concern is concentrated in Algebra II: since the quadratics unit began in February, her mastery has fallen from 66% to 52%, with the biggest gaps in completing the square (28%) and factoring (55%), the areas her IEP goals target. Pacing (18% behind) and work completion (63%) slipped at the same time, and two days without activity on Mar 17–18 compounded it. The pattern is specific and addressable before the Apr 1 unit test.
Next Steps
HW #14 (Completing the Square) is missing. Offer a make-up window before the Apr 1 unit test; she has already asked about make-up work.
AP Biology is at 73%, below her 75% IEP goal. Extended time wasn't applied on the Unit 5 test; confirm with Dr. Chen.
She's in Friday's reteach group (Group A · Concept setup). Her Graphing (88%) and Standard Form (91%) strengths make her a good peer partner there.

Algebra II learning story

Start with the learning outcome, then look at the signals that may be contributing to it.
