What is the Honor Roll Schools Program?

This webinar shares how Honor Roll schools are selected, the timeline for the next release, and a tutorial on how to use our new dashboards. These dashboards are designed to help educators to compare their schools' academic performance against other Honor Roll schools across various subjects and subgroups and to identify "sister schools" for collegial exchange.

About the Honor Roll The Honor Roll is part of the national Campaign for Business and Education Excellence that recognizes schools that are excelling at preparing students with the essential skills they need for success in the workforce and in life. Unlike other school recognition programs, the Honor Roll is the only one based solely on objective student achievement data and in partnership with state and local business leaders, ensuring a true reflection of excellence in preparing your students with the essential skills most valued and in demand by employers.
