Q:

Navigate to http://www.schoolmatters.com and locate the district you live in or want to
work in. Browse either district or school-specific data regarding SES status, then
complete the following:
Identify the name and location of the school or school district you're investigating;
include this information in your response.
Locate and record information that would indicate SES of the school or district (such
as household income, students eligible for free/reduced lunch fee program, education
level of parents, and so forth).
Locate and record information that would indicate student achievement (such as
performance on standardized tests).
Compare and discuss actual student achievement scores with your expectations
based upon your observations of SES. Did your observations match your
expectations? Why or why not?
Search the Web to see how your community might be involved at the school or
district youÂ’re investigating.
