5. Data Guiding Principles
“It takes a village”
We can protect privacy while also giving data to the people that need it
We can help schools prioritize students that need help
We need to know what interventions we have provided to students and if they have helped.

6. Research Mission and Vision
Research Mission: The mission of the Research Department is to work collaboratively to support all stakeholders by collecting, maintaining, and reporting accurate data, facilitating testing, and using current technology in order to provide useful and timely information and to support positive student outcomes and achievement. Research Vision: The vision of the Research Department is, by 2019, to provide a dynamic data and online testing system, blend roles across our units and work collaboratively with other departments to connect teachers, students, parents, and other stakeholders with timely data, information, training and resources.

7. Research Values Research Values Statements:
We provide differentiated training to stakeholders.
We seek training for ourselves.
We troubleshoot and plan collaboratively within and across teams and departments.
We pilot new projects and conduct focus groups for feedback and continuous improvement.
We cross check data and test systems across platforms.
We help with patience and respect.

8. Research Goals (4 Teams with Select Goals)
Data and Accountability Team--By November 2016, design and deploy a budget accountability report that compares data, budget and interventions around a designated focus area and subgroup. Technology Team--By January 2017, create an automated School Messenger announcement that alerts parents when grades fall into the D/F categories. Training and Support Team--By November 2016, provide training and support for the new intervention platform, the new district math assessments, supplementary gradebook, report card, build report, enrollment and attendance training. Testing Team--By December 2016, regularly download SBAC Interim Assessment data and integrate results into LROIX. Collaborative Goal: By June 2017, finalize the transition to an electronic CUM.
