In addition to Naviance, FUSD has also used PowerSchool Unified Classroom® Performance Matters to empower educators, measure student performance more effectively, and make better-informed decisions on instruction. “Fontana’s always had a proud legacy of ensuring students graduate from high school, but saw an opportunity to prepare our students for their postsecondary careers better while they were still with us,” said Vernell Deslonde, Ed.D., Director of College and Career Readiness, Fontana Unified School District. “With support from Naviance to help our broader college, career, and life readiness program, our college-going rate went from under 25 percent to over 50 percent districtwide. Even better, our graduation rate went from 80 percent up to nearly 100 percent. The platform continues to serve as a one-stop shop for us; it even allows teachers to write their letters of recommendations in the platform.” As a key pillar of FUSD’s ‘Every Student Successful’ initiative, Naviance is a focal point for increasing students’ access to the opportunities accompanying higher education.
