What is a DDI Lead?                                                                                                 

A data lead is a person who is responsible for helping a school use data effectively, helps organize and leads ILT (Instructional Leadership Team) or data teams, leads staff in a collaborative inquiry process, enables educators to analyze and interpret data, and educates staff on using data to adjust and improve instruction for student achievement. A data lead has multiple roles and responsibilities.
