COMMUNITY DATA CENTER

This data dashboard follows The Seven Markers from Cradle to Career on the Roadmap to Success for Muncie and Delaware County. At each marker, measurable data is available from which to track progress. This data is significant, because success at each marker is pivotal to a person's pursuit of educational attainment. Falling short at any marker can have serious implications on one's ability to complete their postsecondary education. We know that 65% of people will need a postsecondary education to earn a living wage to support themselves and/or their family. With the courage to confront challenging and shared data, our community can work collectively to engage individuals and families from Cradle to Career.
