Getting Started with the McKinney-Vento Data Tool

This passage discusses two main components: “Student” and “Record.”

When inputting information into the data tool, you will encounter two distinct categories of ‘files.’ You will have the option to input student information as well as add records.

Student – This section contains essential information about an individual student, including their first and last names, date of birth, identification number, gender, ethnic background, academic year, residential and mailing addresses, and details about siblings.

Record – Within this, you will find comprehensive particulars concerning a student, including nighttime residence, physical and mental wellness, details pertinent to Title 1 involvement, student-related documentation, expenses received in that school year, and other related information.

If you’re interested in importing data from your other platforms into the data tool, and are able to export your current data into CSV format, please contact our support team who will organize the import of your data into the data tool.

If you’re utilizing Ed-Fi / MiDataHub, there is an existing integration which will automatically sync student data from Ed-Fi to the data tool. Contact support if you’re interested in enabling this integration.
