VARC: Value-Added Research

Developing a Value-Added System with Madison Metropolitan School District

The project focuses on producing value-added estimates for the Madison Metropolitan School District (MMSD, in Madison, WI) in 2008.  Special focus is also on district-wide growth of students in different demographic groups, such as race, those eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, or parents' education.  Results for Madison are presented before the MMSD instructional council and before MMSD principals.
