Day Nine - What is the "Public School Data Gateway" system?

At the State Board of Education meeting this past Friday, I learned about the "Public School Data Gateway" system - a great way for parents to be able to see how well our children's schools are doing compared to similar schools is Utah.  As soon as I find out that the system is up and running, I will update you as to how YOU and I can acess the PDS Gateway system, what comparison information we will be able to obtain, and how we can use this information as parents.

I also learned about the "Utah eTranscript and Record Exchange" (UTREx).  UTREx is a system that facilitates the electronic transfer of your child's records between:

• your child's school and the Utah State Office of Education (USOE),
• your child's school and any other Utah public school, and
• allows electronic transcripts to be sent to any participating post-secondary institution.

Blog-in tomorrow for Day Ten!
