We have exciting news! The Arlington Independent School District (AISD) is the first district in Texas to implement eScholar myTrack, an instructional improvement system that provides in-depth and actionable data analysis for teachers, staff, and administrators. Rather than simply providing assessment scores and attendance records, eScholar myTrack provides the data analysis in an actionable way so teachers can focus on how they can personalize education for students.
The Arlington ISD has been striving to meet their goal of having 100% of their students graduate exceptionally prepared for their college, career, and citizenship. The implementation of eScholar myTrack complements the district’s On Track to Graduate Dashboards and fulfills the strategic goal of implementing a user-friendly data management and reporting system to end users. Read the full press release here.
“eScholar myTrack not only saves our teachers time, but it helps them understand their students’ strengths and weaknesses more thoroughly,” says Chad Branum, Assistant Superintendent of Technology. “A relatively good assessment score or proficiency level may actually be hiding a weakness in a specific skill. eScholar myTrack helps our teachers uncover that and take action.”
With 64,000 students across 75 campuses, Arlington Independent School District is taking a phased approach with its implementation and data loading. Currently, 27 campuses have had its teachers trained and the district anticipates having all campus active during the 2016-2017 school year.
As if it isn’t enough to have a flourishing partnership with the Arlington Independent School District, with excited and happy teachers working with myTrack, we were also published in Arlington School and Family June/July 2016 issue!

We couldn’t be more humbled and appreciative to receive a letter from Dr. Marcelo Cavazos thanking us for the effort and continued support of Arlington Independent School District’s goals!
The team here at eScholar is passionate, committed and work hard to effectively share our knowledge and expertise in the education data management field. Our motivation comes from helping educators and administrators concentrate on teaching their students and less on the technical chores. It is always a pleasure to work with customers that have the same determination to continue to efficiently personalize education!
