A Unique ID is required for both Student and Staff in order to load information into the Operational Data Store (ODS).
SSN or S-Number could not be used because those numbers can change for an individual person.
PID could not be used because that is a confidential number used internally by TEA.
Local ID Numbers could not be used because those numbers change for an individual person.
slide 3
The District will send a file to TEA of all active and withdrawn students for this school year at the time of enrollment.
The Student and Staff State Unique-ID will be linked to the PID database.
slide 4
The District will upload a student and a staff file of all active and withdrawn students for this school year.
The file(s) will include all students/staff from the LEA source systems that were active/withdrawn in the 2012-2013 school year.
The file will be processed in the TSDS Unique ID System.
