SACRAMENTO – State Superintendent of Public Instruction Jack O’Connell is celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Ed-Data Partnership today by announcing enhancements to the interactive Ed-Data Web site at Education Data Partnership Home Page, which is also linked to the California Department of Education (CDE) Web site.
“Wading through the wealth of education information we provide to the public can be daunting, but it is necessary to give people access to information they need,” said O’Connell. “The changes to Ed-Data will allow people to easily tap into full financial information about local educational agencies, compare test scores and other data among school districts, and more, so the public can hold schools and students accountable for ensuring California’s children get a good education.”
