The Research and Evaluation Department compiles, processes, analyzes, and reports student, school, and district achievement, assessment, demographic, and other data to parents, the public, schools, district administrators, the Board of Education, and public agencies. The department also administers and supports Illuminate, the district's assessment management and reporting solution, and FastBridge, a screening and student monitoring assessment system within Illuminate. Major areas of reporting responsibility include:

  • District, state, and federal assessment results (e.g., CAASPP, NAEP)
  • Reports (e.g., ACT, SAT, AP, dropouts, graduates, suspensions, retention, meal data, transiency)
  • District Course of Study
  • Responding to ad hoc data requests
  • State-/Federal-mandated reports (CALPADS, OCR, SARC, CBEDS); delegated by Board of Education/Superintendent

In addition, the department oversees district research activities (including applications by researchers) and processes grant applications and awards.
