SUMMARY:School Board Essentials Webinar – Using Data for Decision-Making
DESCRIPTION:School Board Essentials Webinar – Using Data for Decision-Mak
 ing\nSchool Board Essentials Webinar – Using Data for Decision-Making is
  an online professional-development session from the Association of Alaska
  School Boards (AASB) focused on data-informed school governance. Schedule
 d for January 13\, 2027\, the one-hour webinar gives board members a pract
 ical framework for connecting district data with priorities\, strategic pl
 anning\, and oversight.\nWhat the webinar covers\nThe session introduces a
  Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) framework for incorporating data del
 iberately into board governance and decision-making. Rather than treating 
 “use the data” as a general principle\, it addresses practical questio
 ns such as which information is meaningful\, where board members can find 
 it\, and how evidence should enter board discussions.\nPractical skills\nP
 articipants are expected to learn how to identify and access useful distri
 ct data\, formulate productive questions during board deliberations\, and 
 use evidence to establish priorities. The framework also connects data to 
 monitoring progress toward strategic goals\, making the webinar particular
 ly relevant to boards trying to distinguish meaningful indicators from sim
 ply receiving more reports.\nWhy it matters for governance\nAASB frames th
 e topic around decisions affecting student success\, district priorities\,
  and community trust. The emphasis is therefore on data as a governance to
 ol—helping boards make and monitor strategic decisions—rather than on 
 teaching board members advanced statistical analysis or turning them into 
 operational data managers.\nSchedule and series context\nThe webinar is sc
 heduled for January 13\, 2027\, from 12:00–1:00 p.m.\, with AASB providi
 ng online registration through its event page. It forms part of the broade
 r School Board Essentials Webinar Series\, whose 2026–27 program also co
 vers effective meetings\, school funding\, board policy responsibilities\,
  advocacy\, and facilities issues.
