Abstract

This grant application proposes the creation and implementation of a digital sign-in to gather family attendance data during school events at all 34 elementary schools in the Beaverton School District. The sample ranges from high impact Title 1 Spanish Immersion schools, K-8 inclusive, and high socio-economic non Title 1 schools. The goal of using digital sign is for school site staff, district administration, and state agencies to have access to a common database to then sort and gather information as needed for multiple reporting purposes as well as targeted school outreach. This proposed study includes an evaluation plan for an external evaluator, Inflexion, to conduct a usability study. The total budget requested is $3,157,301.01. The project will have implications for practice at the school, district, and state levels as well as areas for future research.
