Ion helps you make a connection from the big picture to the day to day activities that define student achievement. Here's how:
Imagine a seamless connection: a district goal for all third graders to read at grade level by year’s end reflected in data-informed actions by every teacher. With Ion, it’s not just possible—it’s effortless.
District Level
Coordination
At the district level, leadership focuses on the “why” and “what”—setting strategic goals, such as ensuring third-grade literacy, and planning the curriculum, professional development, and resources needed to achieve them. Ion centralizes these high-level goals, linking them to real-time progress data and providing insights for system-wide equity and performance.
School Level
Analysis and Support
Principals and school leadership teams use Ion to evaluate trends and equity in instruction, ensuring no gaps are left unaddressed. With powerful analytics, schools can coordinate with grade-level teams to provide the resources and practices teachers need to succeed, while keeping a clear view of progress against district benchmarks.
Grade Level
Collaboration
Grade-level teams use Ion to analyze data and ensure Tier 1 instruction meets the needs of at least 80% of students. When that benchmark isn’t met, Ion provides insights into why, helping teachers identify gaps and resources needed to close them. Ion also supports teams in analyzing the remaining 20% of students, guiding interventions under the MTSS framework.
Classroom Level
Action
Teachers gain the power to adapt their instruction based on real-time data from Ion. They can identify patterns, target areas for growth, and adjust teaching practices to ensure every student is progressing toward the strategic goal. Every lesson, every adjustment, and every moment in the classroom ties back to district priorities.
