Integrated Systems

Abre is a K–12 modern data platform that connects student, staff, and operational information with native tools for analytics, MTSS and intervention, assessment, behavior and wellness, communication, student portfolios, and staff development. It is designed to give different district stakeholders a shared view of information and a place to act on it.

Rather than replacing every source system, Abre draws information from the district ecosystem into role-based dashboards, Student360 records, plans, workflows, messages, and program tools. Its substantial functions across data, student support, engagement, assessment, and professional learning make it a strong fit for Integrated Systems.

classroom.cloud is a three-part K–12 platform for classroom management, student safeguarding, and basic IT device management. Teachers use it to view student screens, share content, control applications and web access, communicate, and keep students focused; safeguarding teams monitor concerning activity and student-submitted concerns; technology staff manage supported classroom devices and settings.

Because those functions serve teaching, student safety, and IT operations as distinct district responsibilities, classroom.cloud meets the original Integrated Systems concept more directly than most listings in this category. It should also be cross-listed with Classroom Management, Student Safety/Monitoring, and Device Management.

Embarc by Education Advanced is a K–12 curriculum-mapping and management platform. Districts use it to organize standards, learning targets, courses, units, lessons, resources, activities, and assessments into a coherent curriculum that teachers can collaboratively develop and refine.

Reports help curriculum leaders examine standards coverage, gaps, instructional patterns, and student performance, while optional teacher, student, and public portals extend the mapped curriculum into planning, assignments, resources, assessment, and community transparency. Those connected capabilities remain centered on curriculum rather than separate major district systems.

MIDAS Education currently provides Data Forge for secure, role-based education analytics together with professional-development management and microcredential systems. Its public offering focuses on connecting disparate data, producing reproducible insights, managing professional learning, and documenting demonstrated educator skills.

This differs substantially from the catalog’s former description of MIDAS as an all-in-one SIS, LMS, website, compliance, and district-management system. The company remains active, but SDLA should confirm which generation of MIDAS each California district actually uses before treating those relationships as current Data Forge or professional-learning deployments.

Otus is a K–12 assessment, data, progress-monitoring, grading, and instructional-management platform. It combines locally created and prebuilt assessments with third-party student data, standards-based reporting, portfolios, classroom tools, and intervention planning so educators can move from evidence to action without switching among separate systems.

Districts can use Otus as an assessment system, a student-data and analytics hub, and selected learning-management or MTSS workspace. It does not replace the district’s authoritative SIS, but it brings roster, demographic, academic, behavioral, attendance, assessment, and intervention information into a shared instructional record.
