District Launches Public Dashboard

On Monday, July 30, the Austin Independent School District launched its Public Dashboard—a new online tool that helps families and stakeholders gauge the current state of the district.

“It is about transparency with the public,” said John Alawneh, AISD's executive director of technology. “It provides comparative, easy-to-understand information about all the aspects of the district’s performance.”

Data for the dashboard comes from the Annual Report, a district publication that aggregates data across multiple sources, and the dashboard will be updated in conjunction with the report’s release.
