What is the Data Summit about?

Keynote presentations, sessions, and our vendors are strategically coordinated to provide all attendees with educational information, resources, and tools, on a wide variety of topics. These topics range from reporting school data, improving data quality, sharing PDE initiatives and making data-based decisions, to data governance, school improvement, cybersecurity and SEL to mention a few.
