Chapter 2: Student Reporting RulesGuidance on the Role of District Data Coordinator
Superintendents and charter school leaders are responsible for maintaining and transmitting State-required data elements in specified file formats to SIRS and other NYSED collection applications.
The SIRS began collecting data utilizing 4 data templates over a decade ago. Today, school districts, BOCES and charter schools are required to submit data using 25 different templates with varied reporting timelines and business rules.
It is extremely important to ensure accurate and complete data are reported, as it may impact State and federal funding streams (e.g. Title I, State Aid). Additionally, State and federal laws require various datasets to be included and made publicly available in State School Report Cards. This information is available on the NYSED public data site.

District Data Coordinator
“Districts should be prepared to document for auditors that all students required to be reported have been reported. The chief school officer is responsible for verifying the accuracy of district/school data submitted to the SIRS but is strongly advised to engage a team, including but not limited to coordinators of various federal title programs, special-education programs, bilingual and English as a New Language programs, migrant programs, and homeless programs, to review data reports for accuracy.”

The "District Data Coordinator Training Series" are several sessions
giving a birds-eye view of various areas of what a District Data
Coordinator needs to know, and what to be aware of. The focus of
the "DDC Training Series" is for those who are new to the DDC role,
and as a review for those currently in this role.
