Several years ago, the MNPS Data Warehouse team developed the MNPS Virtual Data Wall report to assist schools in supporting student success.  The card is a great snapshot of student information, including demographics, at-risk indicators, support and interventions, etc.

Recently, the MNPS Data Warehouse team updated the virtual data wall report by adding the MAP data to the student "card."  To access the virtual data wall report, log into the MNPS Data Warehouse at http://datawarehouse.mnps.org and go to the Assessment folder.  The report is located in this folder.  NOTE: This report contains images, so please consider the time needed to download the report.  OR Only run the report for a small number of students.

Here is a Data Guide to help you interpret and analyze the data: http://bit.ly/MNPSvirtualdatawall.  To access more data guides, navigate to them on this website. 

You can also contact Margie Johnson at [email protected] and/or your assigned data coach to support you and your school.

Also, we would love to hear how you use this report to support student success.  If you use the report, please share with Margie Johnson at [email protected].

The Department of Equity and Diversity offers a wonderful professional learning experience called the Poverty Simulation.  After participating in the poverty simulation, participants engage in a data dive during the Poverty Simulation follow-up meeting to discuss action steps for supporting student success.

For the poverty simulation follow-up meeting, participants engage in a data dive by reviewing various data warehouse reports, including Assessment Details by Subgroup for TLA, MAP, and/or ACT; Attendance Dashboards for 2017 through 2014, and Behavior Dashboards for 2017 through 2014.

Kassie Williams, a coordinator for the MNPS Exceptional Education department, is using the collaborative inquiry process to work with coaches this semester.  One session is planned for September, October, and November. 

The first session was held on September 20, 2017.  The purpose of these sessions is to foster a culture of collaboration for supporting student success.  The primary outcome for this meeting was to allow the exceptional education staff to leverage their collective expertise in addressing four focus areas:

• Data- Based Decision Making
• Instructionally Appropriate IEP’s
• Access to High Quality Core Instruction
• Effective Intensive Interventions
