Using eSIS

eSIS can be accessed from within the district via the eSIS Login Page.

For access to eSIS complete an eSIS account request form.

Background Information

With eSIS, rapid, real-time entry and retrieval of student information allow teachers to expedite administrative chores so they can devote more time and attention to their students, principals can deal with issues at hand and make long-term decisions, and districts can do longitudinal analysis to make informed decisions to support district-wide achievement. 

It’s just as easy to collect and view data regarding Special Education and curriculum tracking as for other common functions such as attendance, grading, scheduling and more.  Because eSIS is SIF certified, third-party applications can be integrated with the system and more information can be captured about students without redundant data entry.  The overall result is that time and money are saved -- and accomplishments in the classroom can reach higher standards.
 

Encompassing & Empowering

eSIS helps educators and administrators navigate their way through the increasingly complex and demanding educational field.  Reporting obligations (such as those required under the No Child Left Behind act) to various parties at state or province, district or school level, can be fulfilled without difficulty.  And access to a wide range of real-time and historical data facilitates running enterprise-wide “what if” scenarios  -- so teachers and administrators can use data-driven intelligence to plan more efficiently to improve student results.
 

Secure & Available

With web access and a single login, eSIS users at any level (state or province, multiple or single district, school, or home) can effortlessly point-and-click their way to the information they require, any time.   Attendance, academic performance, schedules, fees, anything stored in eSIS is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  Only authenticated users can access eSIS,
and then they can perform only those actions and access only that information for which they have been authorized, so administrators and families alike can know student information is safe and secure.
 

Scalable & Supported

Compatible across operating platforms, eSIS can be configured to best suit needs and size, yet is easy to maintain on any scale.  eSIS is centralized, so no matter the level of implementation, student information is easily retrieved enterprise-wide: each student’s data is permanently affixed to their individual record, accessible from wherever hey are.   And eSIS is backed by a full complement of professional services delivered by knowledgeable staff who understand the challenges of the educational field and have experience supporting a variety of implementations and scenari
