Section 02 Ready: How can my state improve the quality of its parent involvement data?

Collecting, analyzing, and using parent involvement data can be complex and challenging, and the process requires resources and support from personnel at the school, district, and state levels. Some states have internal personnel who work to collect, analyze, and report their parent involvement data, others collaborate with key stakeholder groups, and still others hire third-party contractors to conduct some or all of their parent involvement data collection and reporting activities.
