Data Warehouse New Users WorkshopNovember 2012 Key Terms Data Teams and role of DDC How the pieces fit Level 0 Requesting data loads Reporting Enrollment/Program Services Reporting Pre-school and Pre-K students 12-13 Timelines for data reporting Overview of systems PD Data System/L2RPT Reports Teacher Student Data Linkage reporting Level 0 Historical
Key Terms • Datawarehouse=SIRS= • Student Information Repository System • 3 levels of SIRS • Level 0 (RIC) • Level 1 (RIC) • Level 2 (State) • L2RPT=Level 2 State Reports (Cognos) • UIAS=Unique ID Audit System • NYSSIS=NYS Student Identification System • SMS=Student Management System SIRS Manual is a good resource for all terms and descriptions – Link is subject to change, as they are consolidating the manual • http://www.p12.nysed.gov/irs/sirs/
Data Teams (SIRS Manual)In particular, District Data Coordinators should be responsible for implementing accurate reporting of individual student and other data by completing the following activities: • Assembling and leading a team of district personnel who have • technical expertise in the district’s management system(s) and infrastructure, • working knowledge of current reporting requirements, including those of special populations of students (e.g. ESEA, special education, migrant students, LEP students, etc.) • knowledge of the district’s registration materials and processes • data analysis experience, and • an instructional background. • Defining and documenting data collection standards that include: • department configurations and staff responsibilities, • alignment with State codes for State and federal reporting requirements, and consistency across departments and functions. • Reviewing electronic management systems for alignment to standards to ensure: • flexibility of the system in terms of adding fields or screens, capabilities for staff to update/change validation tables, and documenting all processes and procedures for current and future staff. • Communicating data governance standards across departments. • Developing a data verification protocol to ensure that data are accurate when they are transferred to the SIRS
Forming your Data Team • Find out who the key players are for: • Student Management System (in each bldg or across the district) • Special Ed • Cafeteria management • Other key players should/could be: • Principals • Business officials • Human Resources
The District Data Coordinator should: • coordinate and facilitate district data team meetings; • obtain authorization for school and district personnel to view student records in, and obtain reports from, the SIRS; • provide status reports regarding the district’s compliance to the superintendent and respond to requests for data for analysis purposes; • identify training needs for support staff; • monitor compliance with regard to data standards and maintenance of records; • submit requests for data extracts that conform to the Data Warehouse file formats; • act as the liaison between the district and the regional Level 1 data center; • secure the certification of the data by the school superintendent prior to data transmission by the Level 1 data center; • direct or assist in the direction of the data analysis activities and instructional improvement initiatives; and • attend informational sessions provided for District Data Coordinators by Level 1 data centers.
Role of DDC • Organize and communicate with team members • Get everyone to the table and discuss their role • Meet often to discuss issues • 1st point of contact with the RIC for • Requesting loads to L0 • Questions on errors • Locking data for loads to L2 • Keeping up on deadlines/certifications • Make sure data is loaded to Level 2 monthly and is verified (for whichever verification reports are available) • Be sure any/all certifications are completed by the appropriate personnel (Superintendent, Director of Special ed) and by the certification deadline

Level 0 overview • Elect. Import • Used by RIC to Import data; some districts import data themselves • Manual Input • Used to view and correct data in each of the categories. Once on a screen, you can toggle to any other category screen without having to go back to the menu. • L1-Data Prep. • Used to LOCK data – Must have authorization for this function • Reports • Access to Errors – Import, Verification and Information errors • Other options in each category • L0 Express • Used to import and view Course, Staff Snapshot, Location Marking Period, and Attendance code Lookup Tables • Must have authorization to view this
Level 0 Errors All errors should be fixed in the appropriate source (or feeder) system. Can be fixed in Level 0 as well Each category may have the following errors: • Import errors – these are errors found directly upon import – not compared against other categories • Go to Report menu then select category desired • Verification errors – These errors are found once all categories have been loaded – data is “cross-checked” against all the other categories to find errors in data • Go to Report menu then select category desired • Click on “View Verif. Errors” in the darker blue shaded area • When errors are fixed, click on Run Verification Rpt • Information Report – these are warnings of potential errors • Go to Report menu, Click on Information Reports • Run report for each category
Most common Level 0 Import errorsReference Document http://www.p12.nysed.gov/irs/vendors/validation-rules.html • No Matching Demographics (Enrollment, Program services) • 3 possible scenarios… • ID number from SMS does not match ID from other feeder system (for example, your Special ed or Cafeteria system) • Go to feeder system to look up ID number to find out name of student, then look in SMS) • An error exists on the Demographic record • Go to Reports, Demographics on Level 0 to view errors • The Demographic record does not exist (was not extracted from SMS) • Go to SMS to look at student record and ascertain why it did not extract • Invalid/missing Location code (Demo, enrollment) • Check record in SMS • Invalid/missing District Code of Residence (Demo) • Check field in SMS that stores DOR
Common Verification errors • Demographic • DM1067: W/F - Homeless Ind. = Yes: missing Homeless Primary Nighttime Residence. • Enrollment • EE2019: W/F - A state exit code of 153 requires the next School Entry/Exit record to have an entry code of 0011, 0022, 5544 or 7000 and a different location. • Program Services • PS3053: W/F - An Alt.

Overview of systemsLinks can be found on our webpage www.moric.org under Data Verification, right side of page under “+Login Pages” • Level 0 • Where all data is brought together from all feeder systems – First check of errors • Level 1-Cognos Local Reports • When data is clean, this is the first level that data is loaded and stored before moving to Level 2. Cognos Local reports are generated from here • Level 2-Cognos State Reports (L2RPT) • State Ed. Level of the warehouse from which all data is compiled. The data is then displayed (refreshed once a week) in the L2RPT through Cognos State Reports using their SED Business Portal signon (firstname.lastname) • PD Data System • Special Ed data system from which VR reports are generated (necessary data is pulled from Level 2 to populate these reports) • NYSED Application Business Portal • NYSSIS – NYS Student Identification System (State ID’s) • Authorized persons would log-in here to correct “near matches”. NYSSIS ID’s are required for student records to be loaded to Level 2 • SEDDAS – SED Delegated Account System • Superintendents and/or designees use this system to create or entitle accounts to district staff for many different applications (L2RPT, L0 Hist, NYSSIS, BEDS, Exams, etc..) • IRSP – Information and Reporting Services Portal • Superintendents and/or designees use this system to retrieve files that State ed has posted, such as Teacher PINS, Grad rate reports, UIAS reports, and other informational data on accountability. • Core FTP site • Site in which the RIC and school districts transfer confidential or personally identifiable information • ASAP - Assessment Scoring Analysis Program • Used for Regents scanning – collects all item data and produces a “scanned” score that could be transferred to the SMS upon request from school district • L0 Historical • Used to make corrections to data in previous school years

Teacher Student Roster Verification Process • District must report Staff Student Course data • PIN letter is created for every teacher submitted by each district • Zip file of PIN letters will be posted to the SED portal (http://portal.nysed.gov), IRSP(Information Reporting Services Portal) Zip file includes: • Individual pdf for each teacher reported in Staff Student Course • Districtwide pdf that contains all PIN letters in one file • Excel file that contains list of teachers for whom a PIN has been generated • Subsequent zip files will only include teachers who are new since the last refresh • Email notification to CIO when new file is posted to IRSP • If a district or school has NOT identified an Information Officer contact, IRS Portal email notifications will be sent instead to the individual identified in SEDREF under the Chief Executive Officer field • Select SEDREF Query from http://portal.nysed.gov • District must print and distribute PIN letters to Teachers • District should provide teachers information about what to do if the data are inaccurate • School Administrators/Data Coordinators can assist teachers in the verification of roster reports with L2RPT (Cognos https://cognos84.moric.org – State Reports) • Teacher Student Data Linkage (TSDL) Report
Teacher Student Roster Verification Process • To create an account, teachers will go to website listed in PIN letter: • http://www.p12.nysed.gov/irs/teacher/ • User Guide: http://www.p12.nysed.gov/irs/teacher/UserGuide.pdf • Each teacher will need: • PIN • Last 4 of SSN * • Date of Birth * • Valid email address - This email address can be either a work or personal email address, as it will also be the username. * Last 4 of SSN and date of birth will be verified against data recorded in TEACH
Level 0 Historical (L0Hist) Historical records are defined as any data warehouse record submitted prior to the current school year. The data areas currently available for view and future update are Demographic, Enrollment, Programs Fact, and Assessment Fact. For manageability purposes, the NYSED recommends that you grant access to your District Data Coordinator and only authorize a limited number of additional district personnel. • General Information • Access to District information would be based on user SEDDAS authentication rights • Mass adds, updates, deletes are not a function of this application • NYSSIS ID or local student id will not be updated through this application • Inquiries will be by individual local student id and school year. • Only NYS Reporting fields are displayed • Assessments • Districts cannot view vendor scored assessments • Districts cannot view any future assessments administered by another district. • Missing assessment information can be added for a prior district. (i.e. Missing Regents exam scores) • District owned assessments can be changed • District owned assessments cannot be deleted when attached to an assessment response record 31
