VISIONARY SPOTLIGHT
Judy
Dimon What makes this work a game changer is that we aren’t just adding programs. Instead, we are focusing on improving the system itself. Every student’s path is different and supporting them requires solutions that recognize their unique interests, aptitudes, experiences, and goals. That kind of work is complex and difficult to accomplish at scale. New Visions makes it possible with tools that make data visible and actionable to educators and their partners. This goes beyond traditional metrics. New Visions is capturing and tracking data that gives all stakeholders insight into the relationship between college persistence, family-sustaining income, and career advancement. By breaking through silos of previously disconnected data, New Visions has the ability to troubleshoot and track student outcomes over the course of ten years (ages 14-24) and beyond. Pulling data from a cross section of affiliated high schools, colleges, and employers enables New Visions to connect these institutions and hold them individually and jointly accountable for the academic and employment outcomes of teens and young adults at a formative time in their lives.
