Welcome to PRISMATIC SERVICES, INC - We work for our children.
We have the team that can help you meet your challenges.
Our services
Need an area of your support services operations analyzed? Prismatic Services focuses on the operational and support programs that make schools and districts successful. We do everything in the support services arena, but here is some more information on a few areas...
Performance Reviews
School district budgets are always tight and, with the current economic climate, are now even tighter. Balancing resources and needs has become a critical survival skill for district Board members and administrators.
Food Services
Studies show that hungry students cannot focus on learning. Often, school meals are a student’s only chance for adequate nutrition, so this function is critically important. School districts must meet this critical need with operational excellence, so that food services does not drain General Funds.
Facilities
School buildings and grounds are the stage for teaching and learning. As such, they must be many things: well-planned and designed, not crowded, clean, well-illuminated, acoustically ideal, energy-efficient, safe, and secure.
Safety and Security
The school environment of today is fundamentally different from even a decade ago. Students engage in risky behaviors at earlier ages. Dangerous situations arise from marginalized students and complete strangers.
Transportation
Like most support services, when transportation is working well, it's hardly noticed. When it isn't working well, students face a hostile environment from bus bullies. They arrive to school angry and late, disrupting the learning flow.
Grant Evaluations
Accountability is big with grantors, whether Federal, state, or local. They want to know that money spent on a program has had measurable results. This is especially true now at the Federal level, as a result of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA).
School Surveys
Surveys are a versatile and valuable tool for the school leader who wants to stay in touch with stakeholder attitudes. We use surveys in almost every project we undertake, as they often provide a wealth of opinion and information not available through any other method.
Prismatic's Vision
In everything we do, Prismatic Services remembers that the ultimate goal of K-12 consulting is serving children. Improving the services school districts provide, helping grant-funded support programs improve, finding more dollars to channel to classrooms – all of our work is driven by a passion for improving the lives and education of students.
We bring a fresh perspective.
Prismatic Services prides itself on bringing the best and the brightest together to serve clients. The consultants selected for teams all have at least a decade of experience serving school districts as teachers, administrators, and consultants (most have much more). So you don’t have to worry about teaching us your business—we already know it. We can get to work immediately in helping you meet whatever your current challenges might be.
