Here's a great English education specific website that's free! It's called Protagonize. This is a website where anyone, not just students, can submit their writing and have it reviewed by members of the community.
I have a couple of concerns with this tool, specifically because I can't moderate what others are saying. Since Protagonize is not an education-specific site, there might be language and content unsuitable for a school setting. Also, it is possible that some of the reviewers who comment on students' work might provide unreliable feedback. In the end, I would have to make sure that I personally am also looking at all of the students' work.
Nonetheless, I think that for upper-level students, whether that's honors students or upperclassmen, Protagonize could be a great resource. And I will definitely encourage any students who are serious about writing (as a college endeavor or as a career) to utilize this great tool.
