New databases

May

Our Data Desk has posted two new databases with all sorts of info useful to Rockland residents.

First off, relating to today’s story about how many schools and districts in the Lower Hudson Valley, including some in Rockland, received high marks from the state Education Department for their academic performance and for closing the achievement gap.

Here’s a link to the article about it, written by Journal News reporters Randi Weiner and Dwight R. Worley: Nearly 150 schools show improvement. And here’s a link to the database.

Then, we have the database the desk put together on tax levies and school spending. Check out how your school district compares with others.
