School performance is an unwieldy concept. Even with qualitative measures -- test schores, school quality ratings, graudation rates, college enrollment -- it can be difficult to understand and describe the state of schools. To tackle this problem, Metropolitan Organizations for People asked Piton to visualize school performance for some Denver Public Schools. This graphics, made with free Google tools, show the relationship between state School Performance Framework ratings and student assessment scores.
