Ask Nexus about program adoption, fidelity scores, KPI growth, or dollars tied up in low-usage programs, and get a real answer from your own data in minutes.
Good morning, Riley. I am ready to continue.
Using AdoptionRate and FidelityScore across your program dataset, here are the programs landing in the bottom tier on both measures:
| Program | Adoption Rate | Fidelity Score | Est. Cost Tied Up |
|---|---|---|---|
| PBIS Refresh Adoption | 22.0% | 26 | $412,000 |
| Every Day Counts Support | 22.6% | 43 | $298,000 |
| Industry Cert Push System | 31.8% | 30 | $355,000 |
| Math Momentum Tool | 26.5% | 45 | $221,000 |
Across these four programs, roughly $1.29M is tied up in low-adoption, low-fidelity implementations. Adoption Rate and Fidelity Score have moved together all year, so low usage looks like the earlier signal to watch.
Adoption data lives in the platform vendor's portal. Outcome data lives in your assessment system. Cost lives in finance. Nobody has a single view of which programs are earning their budget line and which are quietly wasting it.
Usage sits in the vendor portal. Implementation fidelity sits in classroom walkthrough notes. Cost sits in finance. No one view puts a program's spend next to how well it's actually being used.
A program with 22 percent adoption often looks fine on paper for a year or two, until the outcome data finally catches up and shows nothing moved.
Everyone suspects a few programs aren't earning their cost, but turning that suspicion into a dollar figure means pulling budget lines and usage reports by hand, program by program.
Without a standard rubric across programs, confidence carries as much weight as data. Every renewal conversation starts from scratch instead of from a number.
Nexus answers them in plain language, from your own district's data, without a custom report every time.
Which programs have the lowest adoption rate, and how much are we spending on them?
How has KPI growth trended for each program category over the last two years?
Which programs land in the bottom tier on both usage and results?
What's our best estimate of dollars tied up in low-usage programs this year?
Which programs should we be monitoring closely before their next renewal decision?
How does this program's fidelity score compare to others targeting the same outcome?
No more pulling adoption reports, fidelity notes, and budget lines separately for every program review.
Nexus integrates with your finance system, SIS, assessment platform, and the program vendor portals you already use. Your data stays in your district.
"Which programs have low usage and low results?" is a valid question. So is "how much are we spending on programs nobody's using?" No training required.
Nexus scores every program on the same terms, cost, adoption, fidelity, and outcome, and flags where the numbers don't add up.
Track which programs are trending down all year, so the annual evaluation isn't the first time anyone noticed.
From the annual evaluation cycle to catching low-usage programs before renewal season.
Every discretionary program scored on the same rubric, cost against adoption against outcome, refreshed each cycle without building it by hand.
A running cost estimate of dollars tied up in low-adoption programs, so leadership can see the number without waiting for the formal review.
A standing watchlist of programs with early warning signs, low adoption trending down, before they show up as a failed outcome next year.
KPI growth compared across program categories, CTE, SEL, math, literacy, attendance, and more, to see where investment is actually paying off.
A ranked list of your best and worst performing programs by KPI value, adoption rate, and fidelity score, refreshed automatically as new data comes in.
Track KPI growth, wasted funds, and program rankings in one live view, updated from your district's own data as the year progresses.
