The SLDS Program VisionFLDOE leads the nation in collecting, storing and

disseminating actionable student-centric statewide longitudinal data via a comprehensive multi-faceted PK-20 Education Data Warehouse (EDW 2.0);

Consistently meets information interests of public education stakeholders transparently with a selective set of data tools, analytics and easy access to key centrally-administered applications via a single gateway; and,

Efficiently facilitates data-driven decisions with timely data to improve student learning and research toward closing achievement gaps.
