The largest educational foundation in the Valley, in partnership with Arizona State University, has unveiled an interactive database that allows stakeholders to analyze large swaths of data related to high school achievement rates across the state.

The Helios Education Foundation rolled out its new data tool June 4.

The initiative is a product of the Decision Center for Educational Excellence, which was formed in 2018 on ASU's Tempe campus.

The database, which was created with the help of ASU graduate students, may be the first of its kind, said Joe O'Reilly, director of the ASU Decision Center.
