Local Accountability

Accountability should be more than test scores reported once a year. An accountability system should share the full story of your district with those we are most accountable to- our local communities. By co-designing local accountability systems with your community, you can measure what truly matters, from academic growth to Portrait competencies and student belonging.

Reimagining Accountability Beyond Test Scores


Does your accountability system reflect  the values of your community — or just what’s easy to measure?


Partner with your community to define success on your own terms, expanding beyond test scores to capture what truly matters — from academic growth to engagement, well-being, and Portrait competencies.


Designing Local Accountability Systems Grounded in Your Values

Is your local accountability system grounded in your Portrait and values?


We help districts design dashboards, data visualizations, and reporting tools that elevate the whole learner, tracking not just test scores, but academic growth, engagement, and Portrait-aligned skills — ensuring your system reflects your values.


Balancing Compliance and Innovation

Are you balancing state compliance with local innovation?


Accountability doesn’t have to be either/or. We help leaders navigate external compliance while designing innovative local measures that capture the deeper learning of your community values.


Measuring What Matters — Tools and Processes for Meaningful Data Collection


Are you collecting data that matters — or just what’s easiest to count?
