About the California School Dashboard
The Dashboard uses a 5x5 grid that combines current status (performance level) with change (improvement or decline from the prior year) to determine colors. Blue is the highest performance level; Red indicates the lowest. Dashboard colors help identify both high-performing districts and those needing support.
