Description:

WISEdash LOCAL is a data consortium of Wisconsin school districts developing premier dashboards and data services for participating members. We are partnering with CESAs around the state to develop customized, regional data while simultaneously providing district-level data all the way down to the individual student profile -- next-day data for next-day change. As Wisconsin develops, so do we through continuous innovation of our dashboards.

WISEdash LOCAL has developed dynamic College and Career Ready dashboards which track district-wide student progress on these Redefining Ready! benchmarks. These dashboards may be refined down to the individual student or groups of students, and includes a College and Career Ready overview on the student profile which prints a "one-pager" report. We are currently working with our membership to develop the Life Ready aspect, drawing on the CASEL 5 and other sources to build a "total picture" of the Life Ready student. This is just one of the many dashboards available to your school district for one (very) low annual membership fee based on student count, with routes to paid, district-specific customization also available at well below market rate.
