The merged nonprofit organization will offer an integrated platform bringing together a broad range of student academic and non-academic data, as well as improved decision-making tools. The platform will help school leaders and teachers refine instruction, improve learning environments, allocate resources, and address other factors that research says affect student and school performance. The new nonprofit will also provide professional development for educators.
