About Research and Evaluation
The role of the Research and Evaluation team is to inform decision-making and policy with evidence. We use and recommend several data collection methods, including direct stakeholder engagement and extant data sources. We ensure high-quality data collection through strategically partnering and working closely with school communities.
Our team:
-
Evaluates district programs and manages external evaluations;
-
Conducts district-wide surveys, interviews, focus groups, and other qualitative data collection activities;
-
Conducts descriptive and inferential statistical analyses;
-
Provides research and evaluation support to district departments;
-
Reviews and approves external research projects; and
-
Supports the district's Strategic Plan and other important initiatives.
For information regarding Data Sharing Agreements (DSAs), email research@pps.net. Please expect the DSA process to take 4-6 weeks.
