Less than 12 hours after submitting my entry for Apps for Democracy, I was notified that I won the bronze!!

Here’s what I’ve worked on the past 3 nights:

It isn’t necessarily an ‘app’, but a visualization tool to do a quick analysis on test scores in D.C.’s public schools. Also, you can toggle between various school levels to see if any patterns emerge whether geographically or by the neighborhood’s poverty rate. I have plans to keep Achieve D.C. an ongoing project and to also use it as a learning experience for something bigger and better.. everyone will need to be patient.
