113 Panorama Education Testimonials

"Parents are very grateful that we know their names, that we thank them for dropping their children off. We create strong relationships with parents and the community.”

“When we started working with Panorama, we asked them to help us collect feedback from more of our community in order to get a more representative data set. The results have been remarkable. We collected three times as many surveys from families than we did last year. Working with Panorama, we have made a huge leap forward in a positive direction with our survey program.”

“That’s when we restarted with a more inclusive committee, pulling in principals and teachers to discuss how we were going to respond when kids aren’t learning.”

"We make a commitment to our students and their families that we will constantly evaluate our practices and utilize our resources to do whatever is necessary to help them learn and grow.”

“When we first saw our results for Sense of Belonging, we were surprised. Now, we are taking action to build connections, because we recognize that emotions drive how much and how deeply students learn.”

“Our partnership with Panorama has been great and always well-supported. Our questions and our next steps have always been very collaboratively done."

"As we prepare students for jobs that don’t yet exist, we need to work with students to improve executive function so they can make better decisions and understand the consequences of those decisions. The starting point is to look at the data and create structures that support teachers and students.”

"On our journey to improve school quality, we asked ourselves, ‘Are we meeting the requirements of our students and families?’ One of those requirements is a safe, caring, welcoming environment, and we now have a better tool to measure that in a reliable and valid way.”

"We were able to work with our colleagues at Panorama to find areas where Panorama topics and our Portrait of a Graduate competencies had a good match.”

"When we implemented the Panorama survey and got feedback from our students, we saw Sense of Belonging and Engagement decrease beginning in kindergarten and going all the way through secondary school. So, the board made a goal for our superintendent: to boldly redefine the high school experience."

"When we think about equity and ensuring every single one of the 34,000 students in our districts has the same opportunity to learn at a high level, the data says that 39% of our students clearly do not have the same opportunity. Even if that was just 1%, it is still a problem."

“The beginning of our story is about building an MTSS for our district. In 2018, we had the basis for RTI, and we had a data platform. But the platform was cumbersome and not user friendly. When educators wanted to have conversations about student supports, they had to open a huge spreadsheet, which was not conducive to meaningful conversations. So we knew we needed to have a better data system.”

"Two years ago, we ran focus groups with building leaders, teachers, district leaders, and students. We found that we were data rich but learner information poor. We had all of this data about students, but not a lot of learner information. That led us on a journey towards social-emotional learning."

"Panorama helped us move from 'feel' to 'real' with SEL. Teachers do a phenomenal job of knowing their kids, but having the tangible data to validate those feelings -- that was a catalyst to move into action for our kids."

"You can't separate a student's academic performance with their attendance, behavior, or SEL. Now, with Panorama Student Success, we can put all of this data in one place so we can have more cohesive conversations about students."
