Special Education Placement Trajectory
This dataset contains special education placement trajectory since 2018. It is a long file that contains multiple rows for each district, with rows for different years, gradespans, and placement types.
“Placement trajectory” refers to the placement of a student at the end of the period compared to their original placement; students may either no longer have an IEP, have the same placement, or have a different placement. For details on how trajectory is determined, please visit the <a href="https://app.powerbigov.us/view?r=eyJrIjoiZjRjOGUyNDAtOGMzMi00NzY2LWFhMzQtMDQwZmJmYjEyZTBjIiwidCI6IjNlODYxZDE2LTQ4YjctNGEwZS05ODA2LThjMDRkODFiN2IyYSJ9" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">RADAR Special Education Dashboard</a>.
Resource Allocation and District Action Reports (RADAR) enable district leaders to compare their staffing, class size, special education services, school performance, and per-pupil spending data with similar districts. They are intended to support districts in making effective strategic decisions as they develop district plans and budgets.
