HERNDON, VA – (NOVEMBER 19, 2024) – The National Student Clearinghouse and Open Architects (OA) today announced a partnership that has enabled the Clearinghouse’s StudentTracker^® for High Schools service to be integrated with Open Architects’ analytics platform. This integration by Open Architects, a leading provider of custom-built data visualization tools for K-12 schools, provides high school counselors and administrators with real-time visibility to support and analyze postsecondary success.

Open Architects’ analytics platform integrates data from student information, assessment, behavior, and special education systems into intuitively designed dashboards and data tools that allow educators to find insights and take action. Open Architects offers turnkey service and affordable licensing so that any district – regardless of size or technical staffing – can benefit from the latest technologies that seamlessly integrate student, finance, and HR data. With this new integration, insights from StudentTracker^® for High Schools extend visibility longitudinally into students’ progress after graduation and degree completion, as well as the factors during high school that correlate with postsecondary success.

“District and school leaders don’t have time to search disparate data systems with dated information when they need to address student performance, attendance, and application needs now,” said Seth Racine, CEO and co-founder of Open Architects. “This partnership with the National Student Clearinghouse will enhance our analytics platform to provide new insights into postsecondary success.”

Said Marlowe Johnson, Managing Director of Learner Insights at the National Student Clearinghouse, “We are excited about the potential of the partnership with Open Architects to deepen connections between secondary and postsecondary institutions in ways that can benefit students academically and financially.”
