S/U Ratings in EIS
The Employee Information System, known as EIS, will be available citywide starting on Friday, May 23, 2025, to enter S/U ratings for eligible employees. This applies to all annual and per diem substitutes who are rated according to EIS protocols.
Rating options include:
S (satisfactory)
U (unsatisfactory)
T (doubtful - applies to first-year probationers only)
Users can begin accessing the EIS Online Ratings Form System on Monday, June 16, 2025.
Ratings are recorded in the EIS mainframe using option 7.2.2 for all annual instructional employees and option 7.2.7 for per diem substitutes who are ineligible to be rated by Advance. Employee ratings may be posted individually or auto-populated with an S if all related personnel are rated satisfactory. The principal/supervisor must then review and authorize the rating list, thereby finalizing the transaction. The rating entered will then appear on the employees’ personalized rating form, which can be generated from the online form system.
After the rating list is finalized, authorized users can then access personalized rating forms for their organization. These forms are generated and printed from a separate online form system. Rating forms must then be printed, signed by both the employee and principal/supervisor, and issued to the employee. A signed copy must also be maintained by the school or office location where the employee was rated.
Advance-rated teachers will receive their rating forms through Advance in September 2025. However, they will receive their EIS time and attendance form starting June 16, 2025, using the EIS online rating form system.
