The mission of the Clarke County School District (CCSD) is to inspire students to achieve at high academic levels through challenging and innovative learning opportunities. The district is focused on building a culture of data literacy and evidence-based instructional impact that will provide greater educational equity, social justice, and college and career readiness for all students.
The purpose of the Office of Data and Research is to support the district by leveraging partnerships and additional financial, personnel, and informational resources. The Office welcomes research projects that are well conceived, articulated, implemented, evaluated, and reported. The Office gives preference to research projects that will lead to increased student achievement; address the documented school needs; help administrators and teachers make data-based decisions; and align with the district's broad focus areas of literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional development.
The district enjoys excellent relationships with partner colleges and universities, processing up to 40 research proposals per year. Researchers must be aware that the CCSD student population is economically, ethnically, and racially diverse. The district is especially interested in the results of research projects that reveal challenging and innovative teaching strategies and practices shown to be effective with a diverse population of students.
CCSD encourages collaborative research activities that benefit both the researcher and CCSD students, and is pleased to provide access to schools, teachers, and students when doing so is in the best interest of children. The review process abides by two main guiding principles:
1. Preventing the undue disruption of the educational process.
2. Protecting the privacy of students, staff, and families, and ensuring compliance with state and federal law. The Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and Georgia State Board of Education confidentiality regulations are based on the idea that information about an individual student is private and confidential and generally may only be accessed with parent consent.
Before filling out this submission form, it is HIGHLY SUGGESTED that you complete the long form questions on a separate document, then copy/paste these in to the appropriate areas. See the full proposal guidelines here.
