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. Little did he know he would end up using it for disaster logistics. In this conversation with eSchoolnews, Mark demos the GuideK12 Analytics Suite (watch the video below) and suggests ways districts can make better decisions faster.
