What The Provider Says:

eScholar, LLC was the first to develop a data warehouse designed specifically to meet the needs of K-12 education. Founded in 1997, eScholar now serves more school districts throughout the country than any other data warehousing system.

eScholar has become the standard data warehouse for K-12 education by listening and responding to the unique needs of educators themselves. Our active involvement in the ongoing development of data standards has helped eScholar gain the broad support of a large and growing list of software companies and vendors who currently work in K-12 education. Our development has also been guided by hundreds of educators across the country who have helped shape the very focused set of products and services we now offer. In turn, educators have made eScholar their number one choice for integrated education data delivery systems, and the foundation for their data-driven decision efforts.

eScholar provides tools and capabilities for cleansing and integrating the broadest and deepest set of educational data. We recognize that school data can be extraordinarily difficult to integrate, and over the years have evolved very sophisticated capabilities and proven them by loading many billions of records of data.

School districts around the country now use eScholar to gather, organize, standardize and integrate the vast amounts of information which were previously stored separately. The eScholar system makes this data available in ways which let individual districts track and analyze all measures of school performance, allowing administrators and others to use this information to make smart, data driven decisions

eScholar was founded by data warehouse experts and is focused solely on K-12 education. Our knowledge and understanding of K-12 data is unsurpassed. This provides deep resources for both gaining access to a district’s treasure of data, and for understanding what the data show.

eScholar addresses the growing pressure faced by administrators to describe the progress made by their system in delivering high quality education. eScholar helps administrators make sense of the large and varied collection of data that every school system accumulates. They can then use that data to make decisions affecting the quality of education in a way never before possible.

With a broad offering of data analysis, pre-built analytic models, and standardized report generation, eScholar and our analytic partners help educators meet internal as well as state and federal reporting requirements. As further evidence of eScholar’s promotion of standards, we have led the effort with the US department of Education and a number of states to define standard methods of electronically communicating reports to State and Federal agencies in what is known as SIF vertical reporting.

eScholar works with all school operational systems, supports all of the leading Database Management Systems and can be delivered as either an on-site or hosted solution. We recognize that all school districts requirements are unique and deliver against those requirements.

eScholar has become the leader in K-12 Data Warehousing by helping educators help children. By partnering directly with our customers and a wide range of vendors throughout the industry, eScholar has helped make data driven decision making one of the key drivers in helping children succeed.
