B2B Technologies Creates Latest Online Report Card for Georgia's Schools
ATLANTA (January 21, 2004) – The State of Georgia has completed the rollout
of the 2002-2003 On-Line Schools Report Card. B2B Technologies, in partnership
with The Wrightidea Services, developed this system for the Governor’s
Office of Student Achievement.
The on-line report card allows anyone with Web access to look up performance
and demographic information on all of the 1,982 public schools in the state.
It also provides the same information on school districts and the state as a
whole. All data are available for viewing directly over the Web as well as through
downloadable reports. The 2002-2003 Annual Education Accountability Reports
are available at: http://reportcard.gaosa.org.
In addition to reporting on K-12 public schools, the Report Cards include performance
measures and information on Georgia’s Pre-K Program, Georgia’s Technical
Colleges, the University System of Georgia, and teacher workforce preparation
and qualifications as established by the Georgia Professional Standards Commission.
“I could not have been more pleased with the high level of expertise and
professionalism that has been demonstrated by all those associated with B2B
Technologies and Wrightidea Services,” said Martha R. Reichrath, Ph.D.,
Executive Director, State of Georgia and the Governor’s Office of Student
Achievement. “As OSA and DOE have worked in partnership to ready the data
for these accountability reports, in every regard both B2BTechnologies' and
Wrightidea Services' responsiveness, patience, and customer service have far
exceeded our expectations.”
Publishing school performance information is one of the key components of the
federal No Child Left Behind (NCLB) act. Georgia has been a leader among all
states in providing detailed school achievement information to the public, prior
even to the enactment of this legislation. With the launch of the latest report
card, Georgia continues to offer one of the richest and easiest to use systems
in the country.
