SUBJECT:
Optimizing Counselor Impact with Panorama Pathways (Formerly Mesa OnTime)


As counselors continue to prioritize student success and postsecondary readiness, the administrative burden of verifying graduation requirements, as well as communicating on/off track status quarterly remains one of counselors most significant challenges. Counselors spend hours manually auditing transcripts, cross-referencing graduation requirements, and managing complex schedules. Panorama Pathways is a data-driven software platform that allows counselors to monitor students’ on-track and off-track graduation status in real time. The system helps counselors quickly identify academic risk factors, track progress toward graduation requirements, and support timely interventions for students who need additional support. By automating the technical "paperwork" of graduation, counselors gain more capacity to focus on what they do best: building relationships, providing social-emotional support, promoting academic achievement, and guiding students through the complexities of college and career planning.

Panorama Pathways is designed to shift this dynamic, moving counselors from "data auditors" to "student advocates." Counselors will receive training on Panorama Pathways on Friday, January 9th, from 7:30 am to 9:30 am at the JATC South Campus. All secondary administrators and counselors now have access to the platform. Administrators are invited to attend the upcoming training to learn more about Panorama Pathways and its implementation along with every secondary school counselor.
