Using demographic data in District Analytics

Administrators can use any demographic data rostered to their district’s IXL account to filter and sort District Analytics reports. Use the drop-down menus near the top of the reports to select filters. Demographic data will also appear in exports and visualizations for reports.

With so much student data available, IXL district reports now also feature a new “group by” option to help administrators dig into it. Administrators can group students by multiple categories, including grade, school, course, teacher, and any rostered demographic, letting them easily see specific student subgroups. Want to see a breakdown of students by both grade and FRL status? It’s only a few clicks away in IXL!
