Everyone loves to debate the lowest hanging fruit in school improvement. It's this: building coherent district data systems. (Especially now in the era of declining investment in fed and SLDS!)
We wrote a fun commentary discussing this issue within the context of developing effective principals.

If you have research dependent on these data here is my suggestion
1/N
Big picture:
Create a dataset of cell means (cells must be big enough to pass disclosure)
- load these cell means into many, many tables & put through review
-These cell means can then be used in OLS - which runs on means

Research with restricted-use data is more precise, powerful, and relevant. Faculty and staff will be working through the weekend to answer important research questions before we no longer can. This is not normal, necessary, or efficient.
AERA has just learned that all restricted-use NCES data licenses will be cancelled, possibly as early as March 20. We urgently request that all AERA members and others in the research community with restricted-use licenses take these two actions: www.aera.net/Research-Pol...
