This resource provides a summary of the data states need to calculate significant disproportionality in the areas of identification, placement, and discipline.
This toolkit is designed to assist states as they plan for and carry out their efforts to collect, report, analyze, and use high-quality parent and family involvement data. It defines key concepts; offers guidance on ways to improve the quality of the collection, analysis, and use of parent and family involvement data; and provides resources and tools to help states in their efforts parent involvement data efforts.
The SRA App is an interactive nonresponse bias application powered by state-of-the-art statistical software. We developed this application to help states examine their SPP/APR Indicator 8 and Indicator 14 data through nonresponse bias analysis. The SRA App allows users to conduct reproducible analyses of response rates, representativeness, and nonresponse bias, tailored to their survey’s data collection method.
This interactive resource guides states on gathering representative parent involvement data for Indicator 8. It covers key concepts like sampling, nonresponse bias, and strategies to improve data quality and representativeness.
Our SPP/APR Data Display Toolkit helps SEA staff communicate complex data to stakeholders by creating user-friendly data visualizations, based on SPP/APR data the user enters. Many of the visualizations are dynamic and automatically update based on the data the user enters into the tool. States can easily transfer the visualizations to other programs to meet their reporting needs based on the audience, message, and purpose of the desired report or presentation they are preparing.
Response rate and representativeness are crucial in surveys. This resource defines and compares these terms, explaining their relation to nonresponse bias and ensuring data validity and generalizability.
States can use the Organizer Template for Part B SPP/APR Target Setting to briefly document information for consideration when setting new SPP/APR targets for all indicators in the FFYs 2020-25 SPP/APR collection.
