Appendix A: Minimum Data Elements
The following table presents the proposed requirements for the
minimum data elements that a State shall collect and maintain for
the purpose of electronically exchanging, among the States,
educational and health information for all migratory students.
The table lists the data elements by: (1) A data element
identification number, (2) a code that identifies the primary user
function(s) for which the data element is required, (3) the name of
the data element, and (4) a data element definition.
In regard to the primary user functions for which a data element
is required, the letter ``E'' indicates that the data element is
required to help guidance counselors, school registrars, or migrant
education specialists with the timely and efficient enrollment of
migratory students in a school in the community in which the
children currently reside. The letter ``P'' indicates that the data
element is required to help guidance counselors or migrant education
specialists with the proper placement of migratory students into
courses and/or programs at the appropriate grade level. The letter
``G'' indicates that the data element is required to help guidance
counselors or migrant education specialists with the provision of
academic counseling that supports the completion of courses and the
accrual of credits needed for graduation.
In addition, the data elements are grouped into one of five
categories of data: (1) Data elements that describe a student, (2)
data elements that describe a school or project, (3) data elements
that describe the student's graduation plan, (4) data elements that
describe a student's course history, and (5) data elements that
describe a student's assessment information.
Finally, although the data elements are listed once, a number of
the data elements will be used for multiple entries in a migrant
student record (e.g., ``course title'' will be used for each course
in which a migratory student is enrolled).
