This dashboard analyzes Maine’s plan under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), specifically its commitment to equity and excellence and its compliance with the law.
As required by the U.S. Department of Education and Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), an ESEA report card (ESEA Dashboard) is generated by the Maine Department of Education annually for each school and district, as well as the State.
'Beginning with information from the 2017-18 school year, the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires states and districts to publish annual school report cards on or before December 31 for the preceding school year. These report cards will provide policymakers, parents and other stakeholders with important information about the performance of schools in their district and state.'
This dashboard ensures transparency of school performance for families and community members.
