Troy, Illinois, United States
What it is
EmbraceEVAL is web-based teacher evaluation software for school districts and cooperatives. It organizes evaluations around customizable rubrics, criteria, and timelines aligned with district objectives. The system centralizes evaluation records, tracks historical evaluations, and scores evaluations automatically. Districts can configure staff types, pre-observation and post-observation questions, summative scoring options, and custom rubrics. Educators can attach sound clips, movies, and documents, while customized rubrics can be printed. Mobile devices provide access for recording classroom observation notes in real time, although there is no mobile app. Embrace says the service connects to student information systems through SFTP and API, listing Infinite Campus, PowerSchool, eSchool, TylerSIS, Jupiter Ed, TeacherEase, and Skyward. It reports encryption in transit and at rest, secure U.S. data centers, controls supporting FERPA and HIPAA requirements, and a third-party SOC 2 audit. Support is available by phone, email, or chat, including after-hours coverage seven days a week. Pricing is based on student population and available on request.
