Supporting different API Credentials (key/secret) in different school years | Vendors should have the ability to support different API credentials in different school years, including documentation on how LEAs can switch API credentials to update prior year data. | To regression test vendors' Ed-Fi configuration and ensure that LEAs are able to send data from different school years as needed when they have different API credentials for each year. | Yes | Yes | All |
REF ID 456 - Pupil Count Report for Membership (Carryover) | Collaborate on support activities and enhance the Pupil Count Module in WiSFiP, paving the way for the commencement of the dual reporting in the 25-26 SY. | This project sets the groundwork for a smoother transition into the dual reporting year, ensuring improved functionality and accuracy in pupil count reporting. | Yes | No | Public |
Allows vendors to review and create a WISEid for staff similar to the Student Identity Integration. | To expand the Identity Integration to handle staff data. | Yes | No | Public | |
REF ID 795 - Pearson API Integration Reading Screener | Integrate Pearson's aimswebPLUS system with the WISEdata Ed-Fi API. The data exchange will cover all students in grade levels 4K-3 who are primarily enrolled in public schools, including Independent Charter Schools (ICS), during the administration period(s). To support this integration, SIS vendors will be required to collect and report each student’s homeroom information | This project will enable seamless integration with Pearson's system (aimswebPLUS) to pull student rostering information and push assessment results through the WISEdata Ed-Fi API, ensuring efficient data exchange between systems. | Yes | Yes | Public |
Eliminate the Rigor Level attribute from the course list. DPI will communicate the rigor level changes throughout the 2024-2025 school year. However, the actual removal of rigor levels will be implemented in the 2025-2026 SY, allowing LEAs more time to prepare for this change. The Rigor Level may be reported on /courseOfferings, using the courseLevelCharacteristics data property. | By eliminating the Rigor Level attribute from the course list, we are streamlining the user experience for LEAs. The resulting shorter and more navigable course list enhances efficiency and user-friendliness. | Yes | Yes | Public | |
Stay current with the latest version of the SCED 12.0 course codes. | To provide up-to-date and accurate course codes so that SCED remains relevant and useful to LEAs. | Yes | Yes | Public | |
REF ID 754 - RCC IEP Placement/Location - In-State and Out-of-State | Collect data for student placements in Residential Care Centers (RCCs) from SIS and SPED vendors via the WISEdata Ed-Fi AP. | This project ensures data collection through the WISEdata API aligns with WI State Statute 115.762(3)(g) requirements for monitoring RCC placements, providing seamless integration with existing SIS and SPED vendors, and accurately capturing student placement data from public school districts. | Yes | Yes | Public |
REFID 703 - WDC - Shortened School Days for Students with IEP’s | Collect data to identify individual students with IEPs who are on a shortened school day, as defined and documented in their IEPs. | This project aims to expand the data collection within the WISEdata Portal, enabling the special education compliance team to effectively access and analyze data for monitoring the Procedural Compliance Self-Assessment (PCSA) for students with IEPs who have a shortened school . | Yes | Yes | Public |
Collect the telephone numbers of parents/guardians to streamline the data collection process for the Indicator 8 (Family Engagement Survey). LEAs participating in the current data collection cycle will receive validation messages in the WISEdata Portal when parent/guardian information is missing, ensuring more complete data. | This initiative will enhance the response rate for the Indicator 8 surveys, helping to achieve the target rate set for the SPP/APR report. By improving data accuracy and completeness, we can better assess family engagement and support for educational initiatives. | Yes | No | Public | |
REF ID 626 - Address Verification API for Vendors | Enable seamless access for LEAs (via their vendors) to retrieve verified student addresses through our API. | Streamline data integration and enhance accuracy in student location information for improved educational processes. | No (optional) | No | All |
REF ID 128 - ACT EdFi Collaboration (Assessment Rostering/Outcomes) | Establish an integration with the ACT vendor to enable the ACT to pull a comprehensive student roster directly from the WI DPI and seamlessly transmit test results to our system through the Ed-Fi API. | Streamline the test result reporting process, reducing manual efforts and minimizing the risk of errors. | ACT | No | All |
REF ID 524 - DRC Pre-Assessment Roster | Establish an integration with DRC to enable them to efficiently pull a student roster directly from the WI DPI through the Ed-Fi API. | Streamline the Forward Exam administration process by providing DRC with a direct and efficient means to retrieve student rosters. | DRC | No | All |
REF ID 233 - i-Ready Integration | Establish an integration with i-Ready to enable them to efficiently post students' results to the WISEdata Ed-Fi API. | To advance educational equity by providing districts that use i-Ready access to the same tools in WISEdash that other districts have. | i-Ready | No | Public |
This integration allows SIS vendors to display the WISEdata validation messages within their SIS product, which in turn will help LEAs to easily identify what the error/warning is and where to fix it. The WISEdata Ed-Fi Validations API is an optional integration, does not require integration testing, and can be completed at anytime during the school year. | To offer LEAs an improved validation experience that boosts their data quality. | No (optional) | No | All | |
This integration helps LEAs to retrieve their students' immunization records from the Wisconsin Immunization Registry (WIR) system and ingest them into the SIS. | To saves significant amounts of LEA’s staff time spent on entering student immunization records into the SIS, and to improve the accuracy of immunization data in the SIS. | No (optional) | No | All |
