'...  monitor our progress, to monitor our students' progress and know that we are meeting our goals for Race to the Top.'

'The system will have in it what we call an 'alert system' so it will actually bring a flag into the system to say 'ok, this child was on track and now is getting off track' and then tell them exactly what that issue might be and then the teacher will have access to resources once they look into the system and find out what the issues are.'	
SOT LESLIE WILSON		(sot leslie wilson)
'So the alert system will actually help tachers sift through (smiles) a lotta data, it'll be done automatically, so they can right away at the first sign that a child might be in trouble -- or -- at the first sign a child might be ready for acceleration, they'll get that message and be able to move on it.'

'The longitudinal data system will build a record of each child's experience all the way through school ... and by 'through school' I mean through post secondary and into the workforce.'

'the longitudinal database is kind of the student part of the data system. The other parts of the system: resources for teachers, the curriculum resources the teachers should use  -- it's a very teacher-centered system, but we need the student data to feed into it so that the teachers have access to what their students are doing.'	
SOT LESLIE WILSON		(sot leslie wilson)
'We have some LEA's that are very far ahead of the curve ... other school systems do not have that capacity.'	
SOT LESLIE WILSON		(sot leslie wilson)
'This is a perfect opportunity for us to be using the RTTT resources.'	
SOT LESLIE WILSON		(sot leslie wilson)
'The final goal is for each LEA, each school and each teacher, to have equal capacity and function to monitor student progress.'fade to black
