Multi-year project to completely redesign EMIS for Ohio schools
Modified vertical reporting structureChanges in how data gets from
NWOCA to ODECurrent: Flat files submitted to ODEFuture: XML-based structure built
upon SIF

What is SIF?
More information at http://www.sifinfo.org/
SIF = Schools Interoperability Framework
SIF enables diverse applications to interact and share data related to entities in the pK-12 instructional and administrative environment.

SIF consists of…
Software Application (i.e. eSIS): Software program implemented within a school or district
SIF Data Object: Sets of information shared by software applications using
the rules of the SIF Specification SIF Agent:
A software program (written by a vendor) that serves as the intermediary between the software application and the SIF Zone
ZIS (Zone Integration Server): A software program that serves as the central
communications point in a SIF Zone

What does this mean to you? NWOCA is a pilot for the EMIS Redesign
Pilot testing to begin December 2008 What does this mean next year?
Districts will likely see very little direct interaction with the SIF pilot.
Aggregations and submissions will still be processed in the same manner next year
Districts WILL start to see changes in the EMIS files and data structures.

What will be changing?
See FY09 EMIS Manual – Appendix Y for more details
Three new record typesStudent Standing (FS)Student Attributes- Effective Date (FD)Student Attributes- No Date (FN)
Smaller Student Demographic (GI) No more Student Attendance (GK)

Effective Dates
Present on FS and FD records Provide continuous values for elements
where needed by ODE New record when values change Open versus Closed record Report first day of school to end of
reporting period- cumulative for year Example improvements: OE funding,
yearend attendance
13
Student Standing (FS)
Relationship of student to district Attending and Assigned Building How Received (Student Status) Sent Reason (A/H Indicator) x 2 Received and Sent IRNs
14
Student Standing (FS)
Tuition Type Attendance Counts x 3 Effective Dates Multiple SSIDs (rare) Percent of Time split Admission/Withdrawal date/reason

More Changes….
The addition of the FS, FD, and FN records will be the biggest changes (along with the adjustments to the existing GI record).
More information to come as it becomes available.
