What we learned about data-driven education

Continual learning and constant curiosity are core tenants at DRW. Understanding how others approach their work, helps us all improve and innovate. This is why we bring in outside speakers every quarter to share their perspectives through our Speaker Series program. Educators and one student from DRW College Prep joined us in our Chicago office to share how their use of data ensures student success.
