It is the focus of the Data and Accountability Department to assist school and district leadership teams as they plan for the future with clear direction and focus on improving student growth and achievement. This is accomplished by working collaboratively with all CCS departments to ensure each data set is appropriately analyzed and utilized in the development of sound educational practice within the district.
