What is an Internal Evaluator?
The Program Studies Department in the Standards, Assessment, and Accountability Division is the internal evaluator for the district. In addition to a program director, the department employs three Educational Research Specialists, two Research Systems Analysts, and an Evaluation Analyst whose fulltime work is focused on the evaluation of district programs and policies. The audiences for their work include independent funding sources (e.g., the National Science Foundation, the California Department of Education, the U.S. Department of Education, the San Diego City Schools Board of Education, various departments within the districts central office, and the larger San Diego City Schools community).
