Actionable Insights
Data-driven decision-making is key to institutional success, bolstering academic achievement, increasing retention and student persistence, and supporting family and student well-being within the community. We collaborate with schools and organizations to gather data so to identify trends and actionable insights.
The Student Success Survey (S3) can be taken anonymously as well as with identifiable information when students, families, and schools decide to do so. Data and recommendations are provided to schools and organizations, and we also collaborate to track student progress and conduct research at the organizational level and overall institution of education.
