With the help of $6 million in grants aimed at “revolutionizing” a chronically failing school district, teachers and administrators in Prince George’s County will soon be able to track previously ignored factors critical to student performance.

A total of $4 million from the Michael and Susan Dell Foundation and $2 million from the Broad Foundation are being used to develop an accessible database of small factors that lead to larger success, and strategies for using the data to help everyone from teachers to school bus drivers.
