Begin by selecting the question that you would like answers to:

If you would like to view the Statewide results, leave the yellow boxes as they are. If you would like to view a specific district and/or school, make your selections here.

When you “Click to Search”, this window pops up:

Enter as much information as you have (Street Address, City, Zip) and select a distance. You may click “Find” or press “Enter.”

The map opens in a new window, sorting your results by district, school and distance from the entered address. Other districts are indicated by the various colors on the right hand side.

Double click to select a school and/or district. This will populate your selection boxes as shown below.

Once you have made your selections, choose either the “For Parents” or “For Educators” tabs.

The reports for parents are high level information and have limited comparison features. The reports for educators have more detail and comparison features.
