Case Study: Engaging Latino Communities for Education boosts student engagement with Xello

Xello Increases Student Engagement in Schools in New Mexico

The customer, Engaging Latino Communities for Education (ENLACE) in New Mexico, faced the challenge of helping students, primarily from Latino communities, see a future for themselves and explore career and college pathways. Educators were overwhelmed and understaffed, struggling to implement programs that would re-engage students who felt lost. They turned to the vendor Xello to utilize its platform for career and interest assessments.

Xello provided an all-in-one platform for assessments and career exploration, which was user-friendly for overwhelmed staff and engaging for students. The solution helped reignite students' motivation, with one school achieving a 99% completion rate for Matchmaker assessments. Overall, the program saw 2,184 active students complete 9,736 sessions. Xello successfully helped shift student mindsets, making them believe in their future and improving the quality of their engagement and school work.
