School Report Card

I am sure many of you have already heard of the NJ School Report Card, but just in case you have not heard of the site, I figured I would post it. This is relevant because in class we were speaking about contextual factors. In the school report card, it lists all different kinds of information and statistics such as test scores, suspensions, expulsions, teacher salaries, township information, and most importantly for this class... languages spoken, student backgrounds, and how many limited english proficient students there are. I think this tool is great because there is a Report Card for each individual school, not just the overall district. By viewing my schools report card I got a much better sense of the student population and township overall.
