📉 What do we currently do

🏚 We have a custom built csv/sftp based system.

👷🏻‍♀️ It's hard to use and maintain.

⏱ The feedback and collection cycle is slow.

📈 What we want to do.

  • 🛞 Leverage open souce and state community created tools
  • 🚕 Reduce the burden on LEA's
  • 🏛 Continue to provide federal and state reporting
  • 🌳 We are beginning to migrate to CEDS and Generate

📈 What we want to do.(2)

  • 🏗 Be ready to easily adapt to future changes
  • 🖧 Systems we want to integrate with Ed-Fi over time:
    • Analytics Middle Tier
    • Data Quality Reports and Dashboards
    • Student/Staff identity

❓ Why we need help?

  • 😨 We've never done this before.
  • 😎 We're seeking best practices and what other states have had success with.
  • ✅ We have goals and we know we need help to achieve them in the timeframe allotted.
