School Research Nexus (SRN) has partnered with ECRA Group to bring its members the latest in educational research and the best in academic resources to solve educational challenges. The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) gives local school districts more autonomy to illustrate the work of the district and the return on investment its programs are having in the form of student growth.

I am excited to announce that ECRA Group will provide SRN a complimentary strategic dashboard to all SRN member school districts. The strategic dashboard provides an infrastructure for local school districts to tell their story and define their success. It is a school report card at the local level aligning communication, school improvement, student data and other district processes.

Evidence-based practice is the foundation of ESSA. ECRA, an SRN Partner, is a resource to help you establish performance indicators and benchmarks to monitor progress.

ECRA will host a series of professional development sessions to guide superintendents through the process. For more information regarding professional development sessions and dates, please contact Melina Wright at srn@ecragroup.com.

Sincerely,

Don W. Hooper, Ph.D.
Executive Director
