How one district runs the numbers through mapping software to find blended learning solutions for this fall.

When Mark Finstrom, Chief Technology Officer for Highline Public Schools (WA) first integrated data analytic mapping software into his district’s digital toolbox a few years ago, it was to better visualize his district’s data to consider things like potential new school construction or bus routes for approximately 20,000 students.
