OST Portal
The Out of School Time Dashboards provide a secure platform where the after-school programs (or Out of School Time – OST Partners) manage programs and participants and access student-level academic and behavioral data from participating Summit County Schools after families have authorized data sharing with the OST organizations. The Out of School Time (OST) Portal helps OSTs coordinate and illustrate their differences in students’ lives. This process not only relieves OSTs of extra work and time they could spend interacting more with students, but it also allows these organizations to track and report concrete outcomes to funders.

YouthView Out of School Time (OST) Program Survey
YouthView OST is a social-emotional survey developed by Summit Education Initiative. YouthView OST began in 2012. Our goal was to contribute something other than grades and test scores to conversations about youth development. We also wanted to create a solution for Out of School Time Providers that could drive positive action at the student, program and OST Organization levels.
After several field tests and revisions, we validated the YouthView as a survey instrument in 2014. This survey has been administered to over 14,500 students over the years. The YouthView OST Survey is program-specific. The results are anonymous and aggregated at the program level.

Testimonials
“SEI is ensuring a path for OST organizations who are a part of the OST Network to look at student-level data through the OST Network Portal. This portal connects them with real-time aggregate data due to near-daily data uploads. It has allowed the partners to start looking at the data and better understanding it. Interactive custom dashboards will allow our partners to begin analyzing and acting on the data.”
“We want to maximize the good we can do with our finite grant investments. The Out of School Time Network Portal empowers OSTPs to measure their own progress and drive continuous improvement.”
“The Out of School Time (OST) Network Portal has proved invaluable to us in our work with school-based community partners to help us reach our Bold Goal 1 & 2. The portal is a critical tool that balances the dual needs of protecting student information and sharing the aggregate program data and accomplishments that drive our funding decisions and partnership strategies.”
