EdLoop accepting school and district pilot partners for 2026-27

We are opening pilot partnerships for the 2026-27 school year, and I want to explain what that means, who it is for, and why we are doing it this way.

EdLoop is not a product you buy off a shelf. It is infrastructure that sits at the center of how a school or district understands student learning over time. That kind of system only works when we build it alongside the people who will use it every day: teachers, instructional coaches, principals, and district leaders. That is why we run pilots instead of just selling licenses.

A pilot with EdLoop is a real partnership. We work with your team to configure the platform around your curriculum, your grading practices, and your communication goals. We train teachers directly. We listen to what is working and what is not. And we iterate together until the system fits the way your school actually operates.

Here is what we are looking for in a pilot partner:

A school or district that believes feedback should be continuous, not seasonal. A leadership team willing to invest time in onboarding and honest dialogue. Teachers who want their professional judgment supported, not replaced, by technology. A commitment to family engagement as more than a compliance checkbox.

You do not need to be a large district. Some of our most productive partnerships have been with individual schools that move fast and care deeply about their students. What matters is alignment on values, not size.

Here is what you can expect during a pilot:

Full platform access for your participating teachers and staff. Dedicated onboarding and training sessions tailored to your context. Regular check-ins with our team to review usage, feedback, and outcomes. A structured evaluation at the end of the pilot so you can make an informed decision about continuing.

We are not interested in vanity metrics. We want to know whether teachers feel less burdened, whether families feel more connected, and whether leaders have better visibility into what is happening across classrooms. Those are the outcomes that matter.

Pilot spots for 2026-27 are limited. We keep the number small intentionally so we can give every partner the attention they deserve. If this sounds like the kind of relationship your school or district is looking for, I would love to hear from you.

You can request a conversation through our contact page. No pressure, no sales pitch. Just a real discussion about whether EdLoop is the right fit for your community.
