- Panorama’s life skills survey measures themes like self-efficacy and social awareness through grouped question sets.
- Schools and districts can customize survey topics based on their priorities.

What Panorama district partners are saying
Panorama has helped us tremendously in analyzing and reporting our climate and culture data. The data that we gather—which we always disaggregate to compare results for different groups of students, staff, and families—is primarily for the purpose of continuous improvement. The data is always meant to be a flashlight, never a hammer.
Since partnering with Panorama, the data we have collected has shed new light on both the state of our district's climate as well as the social development of our students.
We might look at the survey data and then do a focus group to ask students, ‘What would it take for you to choose that all of your teachers are respectful?’ or ‘What actions can we take as adults for you to feel respected?’ and that leads to a whole other level of action. We would never get there without data from Panorama surveys.
Our partnership with Panorama has been great and always well-supported. Our questions and our next steps have always been very collaboratively done.
