Customer Testimonials

Western Heights ISD (Oklahoma City, OK)
“Strong reporting capabilities at the student, class, school, and district levels helped inform instructional decisions based on student needs. The result has been an increase in student achievement on statewide assessment exams by 30% district-wide over the last two years." - Mr. Joe Kitchens, Superintendent

 

Pasadena ISD (Pasadena, TX)
"The greatest benefit of the Mizuni Solution is that I can now focus on analyzing data rather than gathering and formatting it." - Donna Summers, Director of Research & Evaluation

"The Mizuni Solution impacts student learning by providing data to determine appropriate instruction. It enables teachers to monitor student understanding and adjust their lessons accordingly. Students learn in more depth because teachers are driving instruction to meet individual student needs." - Dr. Kirk Lewis, Superintendent

"Biggest benefit of the Mizuni Solution? Not only are administrators able to look at assessment data at the district or campus level, but teachers are also able to look at their students’ assessment data. Driving it down to individual students in their classroom. Getting information into each other’s hands is going to be more and more important. There are so many data warehouse systems on the market, rarely do they present meaningful and easy-to-use data at the teacher level where teachers have access to data based on their classroom and can easily disaggregate the information.” - Mr. Bob Daughrity, CTO

 

Mount Pleasant ISD (Mount Pleasant, TX)
The main benefit of the Mizuni implementation is to “more accurately monitor assessments to inform instruction and improve student achievement earlier in the year.” - Mr. Bruce Gearing, former Assistant Superintendent of Instruction

“With Mizuni, rather than generating data manually, there will be more hours available to work with teachers at the classroom level to improve instruction, every student can be successful. The Mizuni Solution is another tool in our toolbox to make this happen." - Mr. Bruce Gearing, former Assistant Superintendent of Instruction

 

Durant ISD (Durant, OK)
“The information is grouped by the twenty students in the teacher’s classroom. It provides the assessment data teachers have wanted forever in a clean, neat, and easy-to-read format.” – Ms. Andi Hudson, Technology Integration Specialist

“Very few vendors can parse data like Mizuni. With Mizuni, the assessment data uploads in minutes and aligns data to individual students.” - Mr. Todd Hughes, CTO

SIF Association Case Study for Pasadena ISD (Pasadena, TX)
The Pasadena Independent School District uses the data it collects to positively impact instruction and student achievement. The district depended on a mainframe system developed in-house but the administration was interested in transitioning to a more modern system. The staff agreed that no single system could fulfill all the needs of teachers, staff and administrators. Based upon this conclusion, the district decided to deploy numerous best-of-breed software applications from multiple vendors, each of which met or exceeded district requirements. To accomplish this, they needed a solution that would provide seamless data flow between the different applications.

Durant ISD (Durant, OK)
At Durant Independent School District in Southeast Oklahoma, state testing occurs in April, with results returned to the district mid-summer. This does not give teachers enough time to react and adjust their instruction to impact their current class of students. Durant was looking for a technology solution that would offer Teachers and Administrators real assessment data. To accomplish this, the solution needed to consolidate data from disparate systems into an easy-to-use interface for users.

Western Heights ISD (Oklahoma City, OK)
Joe Kitchens, Superintendent of Western Heights Public School District #41 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, was on a mission to improve student achievement by putting valuable information in the hands of key stakeholders – principals, teachers, and parents. To accomplish this, he envisioned combining data from best-of-breed software applications across various functions. The aggregated data would be used to generate reports and analysis that would empower educators to adjust instruction and academic support to meet student needs. Western Heights chose to implement the Schools Interoperability Framework (SIF) Specification as the foundation for its Total Information Management solution because it was likely to deliver data interoperability essential to achieving its goals. Since deploying the SIF-based strategy, Western Heights has seen tremendous benefits from accurate, consistent, real-time data, the most significant of which are increased student achievement and increased state and federal funding.
