Using DPA to Assess School District SocioEconomic Status

  -- an example: SES for Frisco ISD
  -- Using DPA, generate the DP1-DP4 Comparative Analysis Profile
  -- See SES indices:
    (using no peer group and including districts with population over 1,000)
  -- Conclusions:
    ... "challenge factor" very low
    ... all other factors equal it would be expected schools
        could perform more effectively in this district than most others
    ... resist temptation to get to one number: can be misleading
