Reports provide a foundation for data-informed decision-making through a comprehensive set of performance indicators that can be used to evaluate the condition of state P-16 systems. Regional and national benchmarks as well as historical performance are examined to identify areas where targeted interventions may be needed to enhance student success and system performance.
