"Our collaboration and partnership with the Panorama team has been exceptional! Their willingness to listen to our specific needs and brainstorm solutions allowed us to personalize training within our district learning management system. The high level of service and attention from the Panorama staff led to a smooth implementation of Student Success and surveys across our district and the intentional use of our SEL and academic data connections."
"We recognized that our students were coming to school with a lot of baggage that we didn’t know how to work around. If we wanted to turn our district around, we needed to address the entire picture of the student from academics, to behavior, to attendance, to social-emotional learning."
"With Student Success, we are able to integrate our Student Information System with six different assessments. We are pulling together attendance, grades, and behavior data from our SIS and combining it with assessment scores, establishing a uniform system that provides school-level views for teachers and leaders to access data and take a collaborative approach to action through our system of supports."
“Viewing this data is about leading with a sense of wonder. We need to seek to understand instead of feeling defensive.”
"We wanted to move beyond the academics to make sure that we’re preparing students for college and career readiness, and truly measuring the things that will help students be successful.”
"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.”
“In my 27 years of education I have never worked with a company that has the professionalism, follow through, and responsiveness that the colleagues at Panorama demonstrate on a regular basis. I continue to be impressed with their expertise and knowledge regarding school climate, using data to make informed decisions, and providing a racial equity and social justice lens in order to ensure student voices are heard.”
“Social-emotional learning isn’t a single program. It’s not one person going into a classroom and teaching a single lesson. It’s a mindset that involves everyone in the community: staff, teachers, parents, front office staff, custodians—this is how we truly build our culture.”
“These programs didn’t provide enough grade-level or school-level data to make decisions—just individual student data. And they didn’t provide any next steps coming out of the surveys.”
“Ten years ago, we started to build a culture of growth mindset at our school. And that has impacted how we work together—when we meet as groups, when we meet in data teams. It all starts with the growth mindset that teachers and staff have cultivated—and our legacy has informed what we’ve built and how we do business now.”
“Teachers showed us the data voluntarily, and a lot of them were surprised by some of the things that their students shared. When we did the next round of surveys, a lot of them had made positive changes to their practice,and the results reflected that. They’re cultivating a growth mindset about their results.”
"With Panorama, we’re no longer guessing. We’re asking the right questions to understand how to best help students."
"Since implementing Panorama, we have 50% fewer F’s and 61% fewer tips in reporting suicide ideation at the school. This is what I love about Panorama: We can focus on both social health and on academics."
"It’s exciting that we can be more strategic, targeted, and student driven because we have the information we need at our fingertips with Panorama."
"When I was a social worker in the schools, the one thing that I always was stuck on was needing SEL data. I never found anything that we could quantify and use to drive SEL learning and instruction. Then we came across Panorama."
