Embargo Reminder

Just a follow-up to my earlier post regarding the incorporation of information from the EDW into PowerPoint or other documents. The 2012 data in the EDW is preliminary and currently embargoed, so it is not permissible to present aggregate 2012 MCAS information to groups at this time. The Commisioner's May memo stated that, "since these are preliminary data, you may NOT release any aggregate data to the public until the official release of school and district results in September." I hope you will find the PowerPoint tips helpful at that time for presentations on the 2012 MCAS to staff, school committees, and other groups.
