Use Cases

• Analyze the relationship between Freshmen_On_Track_CPS_Pct_Year_2 and Graduation_4_Year_School_Pct_Year_2 to study early indicators of graduation success.
• Compare NWEA_Math_Growth_Grade_8_Pct with NWEA_Math_Attainment_Grade_4_Pct to investigate growth versus proficiency across different grade levels.
• Model school-level Mobility_Rate_Pct as a function of Behavior_Discipline_Year_2 and Chronic_Truancy_Pct to explore factors influencing student stability.
• Assess the correlation between School_Survey_Collaborative_Teachers and other performance metrics like Attainment_All_Grades_School_Pct.
• Benchmark SAT_Grade_11_Score_CPS_Avg and PSAT_Grade_10_Score_School_Avg against national or district-level college readiness standards.

Strengths
