PORTAL

INTRODUCTION TO NEW VISIONS PORTAL

The Portal by New Visions is a data, collaboration, and planning tool for student success. It is utilized by: schools, districts, central teams, and CBOs.

Key Portal functionality for the Office of Students Pathways includes:

- Progress monitoring of key metrics, linking student-level profiles to dashboards that show school, district, and citywide-data on the Vital Few Metrics.
- Identify patterns, disaggregate by grade, subgroup, or program to spot who needs more targeted support.
- Supports planning and accountability, informs advising caseloads, goal-setting, and district progress monitoring.
- Up-to-date data that is pulled from STARS daily, sends to STARS weekly - no manual exports by users necessary.
