Possible constraints faced by each school district:

• District administrative staff schedules

– Assistant Superintendant

– Curriculum Specialist

– HR administrator

– Data Manager for SIS / HR systems

• District IT staff schedules

– Technical staff for SIS/HR systems

• Staff and IT skill sets

• Engagement with the partner districts

– Engagement with the staff to determine their skill levels

• Districts level of technology

– Do they utilize a SIS system (statewide scale)

•Define data to be extracted from the LEA-Storage of data

-Where, who-Security of data-Data Policy as related to access, term of storage, SLA’s-Data Governance-Discussions on evaluations: teacher, principal etc on maintained at ADE

•State-wide common dashboard-Purpose of dashboards-Access-BI layers based on access and roles

•ADE IT Platform for Infrastructure and Software to support AZ-SLDS
