Pro Publica has built an incredibly impressive app for comparing public school districts

“ProPublica analyzed new data from the U.S. Department of Education Office of Civil Rights along with other federal education data to examine whether states provide students equal access to programs — such as Advanced Placement or higher-level math and sciences classes — that researchers say will help them later in life. We found that in some states, high-poverty schools are less likely than wealthier schools to have students enrolled those programs.”

Really excellent work. This is what news organizations should be doing more and more of. Don’t forget to donate and support Pro Publica.
