Dear District Administrators and CESA Administrators,
On Tuesday, February 12, DPI will issue a news release and update the WISEdash Public Portal with the following data from the 2017-18 school year: AP Exams, Attendance, Graduation Rates, Postsecondary Enrollment, Dropout Rates, Discipline, and Enrollment Data (for both 2017-18 and 2018-19).
We originally planned to release the 2017-18 graduation data in the WISEdash Public Portal today (2/7/19), but have pushed the public release to Tuesday in order to provide you with sufficient time to prepare as you may need or want to locally.
While districts have had access to the 2017-18 graduation data in WISEdash for Districts since December, we want to ensure that you have time to refine your local message, and hope this meets your needs. Please remember that both the new data in WISEdash and attached news release on graduation rates are embargoed until the public release.
Please direct any questions about WISEdash via our help desk. Please direct comments or questions about these news items to Tom McCarthy, (608) 266-3559, or Thomas.McCarthy@dpi.wi.gov. (DPI staff members monitor calls and messages every business day.)
