MassOpenBooks.org is an online tool where visitors can get data on state disbursements, state employees’ salaries and retiree pensions.
The site is sponsored by the Shamie Center for Better Government at Pioneer Institute.
It's a reference and discussion for people to find out what state employees’ make, who is getting what kind of pension and payments made by government agencies to businesses and people. It will be possible to obtain data from specific people or departments, or make comparisons.
The data used in this website are public records obtained from the State Comptroller’s Office and the State Retirement Board.[1]
MassReportCards.org is a tool for district and school ratings that allows superintendents, parents and students see how their school ranks in the state.
It allows people to compare schools with other schools from across Massachusetts and rate them oneself.
It was designed for parents seeking better educational choices for their children, teachers and administrators who want to know how their school stacks up, researchers looking for hard data, and every citizen watching their tax dollars.[2]
