Data warehousing systems contain achievement, demographic or other data pulled from student information systems and other sources of data. They are designed for us to look up or run reports about student performance, achievement, attendance, discipline or demographic factors. This information can be used to determine what a particular student needs to learn, how to group students, what changes need to be made to instruction for a group to be successful and many more.
What data tools do we have available within our District? IGOR is available through Kent ISD and supports state assessments such as MEAP, MI Access, ELPA and District assessments such as MAP. Many differerent reports are available at the District, school and classroom level.
Also through Kent ISD is Curriculum Crafter. The Curriculum Crafter tools assists teacers in improving student achievement. It contains curriculum, resources, assessments and differentiation strategies.
The Medicaid documentation website is designed for staff to make progress notes for Medaid eligible students but can be used to document progress on all students.
Staff use WATER in GRPS to look up information on students related to achievement, absences, etc. Our Total Recall system is used to house all student data which is used to report to the state, set up transportation with Dean, keep track of Medicaid eligibililty, track accomodations etc.
Staff are required to sign up with Learnport to access professional development opportunities which will also then keep a transcript of those for their re-certification needs.
