Now add expenditures. • Explore what’s possible for students at each level of spending. Coupling spending and performance data by school can: • Activate school-level engagement to leverage dollars to do the most for students. • Explore resource tradeoffs. • Foster the spread of innovations Financial data enables exploration of equity.
