The Education Scorecard is a website that provides detailed information about
academic performance in school districts across the United States. Developed through a
collaboration between researchers at Harvard, Stanford, and Dartmouth, the site tracks student
achievement in reading and math and highlights districts that are making significant
improvements. Users can explore district-level data, compare performance trends, and learn
about factors influencing student success.
The website is beneficial because it helps to better understand how schools are performing and
where improvements are occurring. It also helps identify successful strategies that other districts
may be able to adopt. To use the website, visitors can search for specific school districts, view
interactive maps and performance data, read national findings, and explore reports on
high-performing districts. The site makes complex educational data more accessible and easier
to understand for a broad audience.
