Data and Assessment (DnA) is an all-inclusive data management platform. It enables staff to analyze formative, interim, and state-mandated assessment results with the option to disaggregate by various student subgroups. The system also provides a variety of assessment creation and administration options, with a portfolio of prebuilt ELA, Math, and Science assessments.

Classroom teachers are automatically granted DnA access, with permissions to view data for their rostered students. Principals, assistant principals, and some school support staff are automatically granted access with permissions to view school-wide student data.
If you need DnA access permissions established or upgraded, please have your school administrator or department manager/supervisor/director complete this form.
Requests will be processed within 4 business days.
Note: Only requests from principals, supervisors, managers, or directors will be processed.
To create sections or caseloads for itinerant teachers, please follow the Synergy directions outlined here. Once the section/caseload is created in Synergy, the assigned teacher will have access to data in DnA for the same set of students.
Staff in the paraeducator job class are not authorized to access DnA. Contractors cannot access DnA without a review of their data use agreement.
