6. What are Data-driven Decisions?  It is more than looking at student test scores?

7. What are Data-driven Decisions?  It is objective criteria for determining what you teach?

8. Data is Powerful  Assess the current and future needs of students  Decide what to change  Determine if goals are being met  Engage in continuous school improvement  Identify root causes of problems  Promote accountability
