This guide gives special attention to engaging parents and families, the primary users of school-level report cards, but many of the engagement strategies included in this document are broadly applicable to all stakeholders.
This guide illustrates how states can best leverage stakeholder input in the development of their report cards and highlights best practices from four states that have already begun this work. The guide is meant to be used in concert with CCSSO’s Communicating Performance: A Best Practices Resource for Developing State Report Cards, which outlines the entire report card development process.
