Using Data to Align Resources to Create a Comprehensive Learning System

Overview

This webinar focused on how outcome management systems support city and district efforts to build a system of comprehensive services to ensure all students are on track to graduate. Presentations included findings from Volume II of the recent Wallace Foundation commissioned report Hours of Opportunity: The Power of Data to Improve After-School Systems Citywide and descriptions from both Boston, MA, and Jefferson County, KY, two communities that have built an information management system to support the development and sustainability of a comprehensive learning system for all students. These systems successfully align the resources of both the school district and community providers to support high quality educational opportunities both during school hours and beyond.

Mary Kate Poling, Senior Vice President of Community Impact, Metro United Way (Jefferson County, KY)
