"There was a lack of common tools for school-teams to be using we needed to find a way to put student data in the hands of our educators (and families) in a more efficient and streamlined manner so that they could take action sooner to support our students."

“We have data for math, reading, and writing. We also want to teach valuable life skills, but we haven’t ever been able to measure that until now. Teaching these skills is valuable and results in higher academic scores—and with Panorama, we now have a way to measure that. Academics and …

"Often, we want to start with academics. Really, we should be looking at attendance, engagement, and SEL—what's going on in students' lives? Panorama Student Success has helped us look deeper instead of jumping straight to academics."

“Panorama’s tools for MTSS are powerful and easy to use in our daily work supporting students.”

"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."

"Panorama has allowed us to make a quantum leap in our approach to student support. We can ask, 'How is this student responding to our instruction?' in data meetings and instructional planning. We're becoming more responsive to the needs of our student body."

“Highline is a really, special district, and a pretty unique district as well. We're a beautifully and richly diverse district, with students that represent so many different cultures.”

"This was a chance for us to put our commitment to equity into action. Our students deserve a level playing field for learning and staying connected with their teachers by video for lessons, for office hours, and for wellness check-ins."

“It was interesting to see the parents’ reactions to it, because when they saw that 25% of our students didn’t think they could get better in [academic] subjects, they were actually troubled by it, as well.”

“We were actually seeing some concerning data about learning loss between school years—even for students who we had done a really great job of transition planning for. We felt that summer was a huge missed opportunity.”

“We needed to strengthen our Tier 1 literacy instruction to ensure fewer students needed interventions. At the same time, we had to push toward more targeted, data-driven reading interventions for students who needed RSPs.”

“Most buildings were tracking student literacy progress in different ways. So data existed in many places, and there was no way to easily transfer it between buildings. With this new legislation, students could be on RSPs throughout multiple grades—so we had to have a way to track and share student …

“With Student Success, we look at data through a different lens. We’ve always been data driven, but our approach was very broad; now, it is more streamlined and efficient. RSPs help look more closely at student progress; we have a better understanding of challenging areas and how to address those.”

“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, …

“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.”
