Summary
Administration previewed a district balanced scorecard aligned to the strategic plan that will track outcome and implementation metrics across four priority areas. The tool is internal for now (PDF link in the board packet); administration plans a public‑facing dashboard later in the year.
Assistant director of analytics Erica Algren and Superintendent Stallo introduced a district balanced scorecard at the board’s Dec. 1 meeting, describing it as an internal data tool aligned with the district strategic plan to measure progress in four priority areas: academic achievement, student engagement and wellness, collaboration and partnerships, and staff investment and impact.
Algren said the scorecard contains both outcome metrics (for example, proficiency measures and participation counts) and implementation metrics (adult actions and inputs). The district is collecting the metrics quarterly and working to translate them into digestible reports for the board and, later, for the public. A PDF version of the scorecard is linked in the board packet, and administration said a more polished public dashboard will be developed and released in phases.
Board members asked how parents would see individual proficiency and what public access to the dashboard would look like. Algren said classroom‑level and screener results are sent to families and that additional presentations on early‑literacy work are planned for January. Superintendent Stallo and Algren said they welcome board input about which high‑level indicators the board wants to monitor regularly.
What it means: The balanced scorecard is intended to provide a structured, recurring basis for monitoring strategic priorities and aligning professional development, program interventions and communication to the public.
