- Summary:
-
The Cincinnati Public Schools' Information System (SIS) was established in 1970 and is currently an ongoing mechanism serving almost 100 schools. Its overall purpose is to provide data and information to decision-makers in order to optimize decision-making. The system utilizes a Hewlett-Packard 2000C unit and collects data on over 800 variables relating to students, staff, school plants, assignable costs, demographic characteristics, special education, and other matters. Each elementary, junior, and senior high school is provided with 11 reports which describe what the school is doing in relation to these variables and how these variables relate to educational achievement. Four years' experience with the system indicates that it provides excellent support for educational planning and control processes, for goal setting, problem identification and needs analysis, and for product evaluation. In addition, the SIS is an integral part of the educational accountability system and the district's Planning, Programing, and Budgeting System (PPBS). (Author)
