WISEdash: Wisconsin Information System for Education Data Dashboard

WISEdash is a data portal that uses "dashboards," or visual collections of graphs and tables, to provide multi-year education data about Wisconsin schools. Current and Certified data can be displayed on both platforms for multiple years and it can be grouped and filtered by a variety of demographics including grade level, gender, race/ethnicity, economic status, disability, English proficiency, and migrant status. Data download files are also available.

There are two versions of WISEdash:

WISEdash Public Portal

What's Available for Display in WISEdash?

Each year, all Wisconsin public school districts collect information about their students, staff, and courses based on federal and state requirements.

These data sets are submitted to the Department of Public Instruction where they're stored and linked in a data warehouse (WISEdata).

Data are required to be published by the Department of Public Instruction, and are redacted to protect student privacy. WISEdash is one platform for that publication. WISEdash gives you an interactive way to select and filter Wisconsin public school data from the 2005-06 school year forward. Additional historical datasets from 1995 can be downloaded.

Private school data is not included in WISEdash. Links to other educational datasets and key reports are available in WISEdash. WISEdash provides a streamlined delivery of consistent data and dashboards.
