Madison School District's Hanover Research Council Contract

Andrew Statz, Chief Information Officer (PDF):

Project Description: Hanover offers school districts a service to aggregate, compile, and analyze data, gather intelligence, and identify best practices suited to specific needs of their district. They will do market research, surveys, benchmarking, and evaluating efficiencies.

Analysis: MMSD guides the analysis topics assigned to Hanover. With a single track of service, Hanover works on one topic at a time from start to finish before moving on to another topic. MMSD was a member for the first time in early 2010. Examples of reports prepared or being prepared specifically for MMSD since that time include:

Compilation and coding of public input for the Building Our Future Plan to address achievement gaps

Review of the effectiveness of the four block schedule at La Follette High School;

Determining the impact and satisfaction level of summer school offerings;

Survey of various stakeholders to determine what makes the "ideal
graduate";

Review of staff recognition programs of other districts;

Identification of a methodology to approve new handheld and wireless
technology in classrooms; and

Various information papers.

Clusty Search: Hanover Research Council.
