Cohort View

Every student, in context

See status indicators at a glance for every student in a cohort. Wellness trends over time surface patterns that individual check-ins might miss, helping teams prioritize where support is needed most.

Real Context Beyond The Numbers

Teachers and counselors add qualitative insights -- notes, check-ins, reflections -- providing leadership deeper understanding of each student's experience. Log social-emotional observations directly. Capture student reflections and teacher notes. Include context alongside quantitative data. Turn anecdotes into measurable insights.
