Wyoming Teacher Evaluation Software
Run teacher evaluations on your district's own system, the framework Wyoming districts design and the State Board approves, built for the evaluators who conduct them.
Evaluation is the entry point, not the whole story. In EX in Education, evaluations connect to coaching, goals, PD, and retention, so every educator moves from hired to thriving.

How Wyoming Teacher Evaluation Works
Wyoming is a local-control state. Under Wyoming statute (W.S. 21-3-110) and the State Board's Chapter 29 rules, every district must run a comprehensive teacher evaluation system, but each district designs its own against its standards for performance. There is no single statewide rubric. EX in Education adapts to the system your district already uses, then makes it the doorway into connected coaching, PD, and retention.
Districts Design Their Own Systems
Wyoming districts build their evaluation systems locally, choosing the framework and standards that fit their schools. EX configures to yours instead of forcing a fixed rubric.
- Bring a Danielson-based framework
- Bring an InTASC-aligned system
- Or build your district's own rubric
- One tool across every school
State Requirements and Review
Chapter 29 rules and the State Board of Education set the requirements a district system must meet, and the State Board approves district evaluation systems. EX keeps the records that support that process.
- Comprehensive system required by statute
- State Board approval of district systems
- Evaluation cycle set by Wyoming statute
- PTSB handles educator licensure separately
Bring Your District's Framework
EX in Education does not lock you into one rubric. Whatever your Wyoming district uses to evaluate teaching, the observation forms, rating scale, and evidence tools are configured to match.
Danielson-Based
Many Wyoming districts adopt a Danielson-based framework organized around planning, environment, instruction, and professional responsibilities.
- Four-domain structure
- Component-level evidence
- Four-level rating scale
InTASC-Aligned
Systems built around the InTASC model teaching standards, from learner development through leadership and collaboration.
- Standards-based indicators
- Evidence tied to each standard
- Your district's descriptors
District-Built
Your own locally designed rubric, with the domains, indicators, and performance levels your board approved.
- Custom domains and criteria
- Your rating labels
- Configured, not rebuilt
Observations, Set Locally
- Formal observations and informal walkthroughs
- Duration and count set by district policy
- Pre- and post-conferences when your system uses them
- Announced or unannounced
Evaluation Cycle, In Statute
- Initial-contract teachers evaluated at least once a year
- Continuing-contract teachers evaluated yearly until rated effective two years running
- After that, a full evaluation at minimum once every three years
- EX tracks each teacher's cycle automatically
State Board approval: Wyoming districts submit their evaluation systems for State Board of Education approval under Chapter 29. EX keeps observations, evidence, and ratings organized so the documentation behind your system is ready when you need it. Educator licensure is handled separately by the Wyoming Professional Teaching Standards Board (PTSB).
Performance Levels, Set Locally and Tracked Over Time
Wyoming statute turns on whether a teacher is classified effective, which changes how often they are evaluated. The performance levels themselves are defined by each district. Many use a four-level structure like the one below. EX records each rating, ties it to its evidence, and carries it forward.
Highly Effective
Consistently exceeds expectations and models practice for others
Effective
Meets expectations and demonstrates proficient practice
Developing
Shows growth potential and needs support in some areas
Ineffective
Requires significant improvement and intensive support
Under Wyoming statute, once a continuing-contract teacher is classified effective for two consecutive years, a full evaluation is required at minimum once every three years instead of annually. Teachers who are still developing are evaluated yearly and are typically supported with improvement plans and mentoring. Exact level names and descriptors are defined locally. EX in Education keeps each teacher's rating history, cycle schedule, and improvement plans in one place, and routes the ones who need support into coaching cycles, so a rating leads to next steps, not just a score.

Why Wyoming Districts Run Evaluations Inside EX in Education
Run your evaluation system the way your district designed it, then use what the evaluation surfaces to actually grow and keep your teachers. Evaluation is the doorway. Educator growth and retention is the product.
Less admin, more coaching
Structured workflows and feedback tools free evaluators to spend more of their time in coaching conversations, not paperwork.
Consistent across schools
Your district's rubric and process, applied the same way whether it is one building or every school in the district.
Growth you can see
Ratings, goals, and coaching history sit together, so progress is visible over time instead of scattered across files.
Retention, not just ratings
When feedback connects to PD, goals, and support, teachers keep developing, and districts keep the ones they worked hard to hire.
How AI Supports Teacher Evaluations
AI in EX in Education helps evaluators work through evaluations faster while keeping every judgment in human hands. It drafts and organizes, evaluators decide.
Draft Feedback From Evidence
Turn observation notes into clear feedback aligned to your district's criteria that the evaluator reviews and edits before it is shared.
Organize Evidence by Criterion
Sort notes and artifacts against your district's evaluation criteria, so nothing is missed when it is time to score.
Suggest Growth Next Steps
Surface coaching moves and PD ideas tied to what an observation revealed, ready for the evaluator to assign.
