what makes us different?

01
64
we provide tools to engage the community
beyond a single survey, we support districts with strategies like: focus groups, town halls, and empathy interviews to capture a wide array of data and include a variety of voices. we analyze the data for you, so you can focus on envisioning a path forward. 
02
07
we use research-based performance metrics
we are the exclusive provider of tripod surveys – one of the only research-based surveys that actually ties to student performance and teacher effectiveness. our surveys get you closer to understanding what’s happening down to the classroom level and make a difference where it really matters - at the student level.
03
09
we identify the right people
our approach to community engagement goes several steps beyond surveys, in that we also work with district leaders to determine who are the right people to have on various teams throughout the process. we help you determine who should be in the room and who needs to know what.
04
05
we build trust through outreach
many strategic planning providers focus solely on designing the plan as their main communication tool. instead of working in silos and sharing the plan only after it's complete, we partner with districts to create multiple touchpoints, ensuring visibility throughout the process. we help craft intentional messaging and plan the timing and format of each update.
