Michigan Ed-Fi Data v3.1 - Student

Classic View: System Administration > Ed-Fi

Search Terms: Ed-Fi

This resource represents an individual for whom instruction, services, and/or care are provided in an early childhood, elementary, or secondary educational program under the jurisdiction of a school, education agency, or other institution or program. A student is a person who has been enrolled in a school or other educational institution. 

A Student School Association record must be sent in order to see/access a Student record in the ODS.  This is is the security protocol set by Ed-Fi, you cannot see the Student record until they are associated to a School through the SSA record.

 The Student Resource is a shared record among all districts. If two districts have the same student in the same year, the last district to trigger data to Ed-Fi is the data stored in Ed-Fi. 

For example, if one district put in a first name of "Robert" and the second district put in a first name of "Rob", the last district to update the student record is what will appear in Ed-Fi and on both District's reports. This is true for all field logic in the Student Resource.

Logic

A record will report when an enrollment is created and saved that is aligned to a configured year.

  • The enrollment must overlap with the configured year to report.
  • Data only sends for the years that have valid configuration.

When using data in Campus that has a single date, the following logic will be applied to determine the scope year(s) in which to report data:

  • Current Year: The record must overlap the current year.
  • Previous Years: The record's date must be on or before the schools year's end date defined in the School Years editor. If blank, the default date of 6/30/xxxx is used.
  • Future Years: The record's date must be on or after the schools year's start date defined in the School Years editor. If blank, the default date of 7/01/xxxx is used.

When using data in Campus that have start and end dates, the following logic will be applied to determine the scope year(s) in which to report data:

  • Current Year: The record must overlap the current year.
  • Previous Years: The record's start date must be on or before the school year's end date and the record's end date must be after the school year's end date defined in the School Years editor. If blank, the default date of 6/30/xxxx is used.
  • Future Years: The record's start date must be on or before the schools year's start date and the record's end date must be on or after the school year's start date defined in the School Years editor. If blank, the default date of 7/01/xxxx is used.

PersonpersonID
  1. If a Student and Student School Association record has been sent for a student, a Student and Student School Association record will be logged in the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table. If the student's enrollment is deleted or their Ed-Fi ID is changed while the Student and/or Student School Association Resource Preference is turned off, the old record and resource id will remain in the table until the resource is turned back on and a resync is performed on either Students or Student School Associations.

  2. The Students and Student School Associations records will be deleted from the identity mapping table if all enrollments that were sent to Ed-Fi are deleted.
