AI in Special Education
Discover how Mesquite ISD uses AI to enhance IEP quality, reduce documentation time, and provide personalized student support in special education.
Special education enrollment is growing and your team is feeling it. Panorama Solara uses secure AI to bring student context together into review-ready drafts — from IEPs and evaluations to FBAs and BIPs — so educators can spend less time on paperwork and more time where it matters most.
Across districts, teams are managing growing caseloads while student data remains scattered across evaluation reports, assessment results, service history, uploaded documents, and campus records. All making it harder to draft with clarity and confidence.
For most educators, a single IEP takes two to three hours to write. Evaluation reports can take four to twelve. That's time that could be spent with students.
Assessment scores, behavior data, attendance records, evaluation reports, teacher input is all there, just never in the same place. By the time it's pulled together, valuable time is gone. And when pieces are missed, plans suffer for it.
Nearly 8 million students are served under IDEA today, and enrollment continues to climb. Meanwhile, districts are losing special education teachers faster than programs can produce them. Caseloads grow. Capacity doesn't.
Panorama Solara uses secure AI that brings student context together so your team can draft with clarity, meet IEP timelines with confidence.
Solara synthesizes academic performance, behavior, attendance, and district documentation into structured drafts for present level statements, evaluation reports, and more.
Districts using Solara report that IEP drafting that previously took teachers two to three hours can now be completed in 45 minutes. Evaluation reports that once took up to 12 hours are now completed significantly faster.
When documentation is grounded in current student data, plans are more specific, goals are more targeted, and accommodations reflect what each student actually needs. Solara helps teams move away from cookie-cutter plans and toward documentation that families and special education teams can trust.
"The platform makes it easier to come up with the right course of action for a student without it being cookie cutter, where everybody gets the same thing, everybody gets the same intervention."
