Through a grant from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, the Northwestern Wisconsin Collaborative for STEM has reviewed the overall college and/or career readiness of high school students in 51 school districts within the ten-county region of Momentum West during the 2014-15 school year.

This map series exhibits area-specific aggregated district information including:

• Enacted and available curriculum that encompasses the scientific practices, knowledge, and skills students must acquire to become successful adults. (The opportunity to for students to learn.)
• Student assessments that illustrate how well students are learning and have learned the enacted curriculum.
• Demographic data for analysis which may indicate negative or positive trends based on poverty, disabilities, English proficiency, etc.
