Hey Samantha,
I wanted to let you know that we are working on a response. It looks like it
will be next week before I get all the input needed from the other players.

Good day!
The GSIS Board has met today. There was discussion of a webinar that was held
in November and as late as yesterday regarding SLDS access to GNETS staff
serving students from outside districts.
It is the boards understanding that districts with GNETS students being served
outside of their home district are going to be required to create staff records
with the GNETS staff social security numbers. The board has several concerns
regarding the delivery of information and the impact this requirement may have
on future state reporting cycles.
It seems that several members of the board were unaware of the scheduled
webinars. The concern extends to those districts that were also unaware of the
webinars and the information shared during those webinars. Further concern is
shared due to SLDS Governance Board members not being aware of the changes.
What body of people have been involved in rolling out this new process? This
lack of communication has generated a great deal of confusion concerning this
new requirement and how the districts should proceed.
An email shared with the board contained documentation regarding settings in
Infinite Campus and Powerschool. Who generated these documents? It is the
understanding of the board that the vendors were not used as a resource when
generating these documents.
Have the new required settings been tested to ensure they provide the expected
end result without a negative impact on other state reporting cycles?
I appreciate, in advance, any information you can share with the board to
assist us and the districts with ensuring we are in compliance with reporting
and confidentiality requirements.
Best Regards,
Samantha Mimbs Data Coordinator, Monroe County Schools
