Description

A public online data tool developed and maintained by the To&Through Project that lets users explore educational attainment rates by Chicago Public Schools school, district, and community area.

Components

  • To&Through Community Milestones Tool: A publicly available online data resource built on the earlier To&Through High School Milestones Tool, providing data on "five key milestones for college success—high school enrollment, high school graduation, college enrollment, college persistence, and college completion" for CPS students organized by the community area they live in. It was inspired by the Little Village Education Collaborative and developed from the belief that communities possess knowledge to solve their own challenges. The report serves as its accompanying research resource. (McKoy et al. (2021))
