Statewide Student Identifier (SSID) Project
All K-12 public school students were assigned a SSID by June 2005. All LEAs are currently required on an ongoing basis to acquire SSIDs for new students and maintain SSIDs for existing students. The California School Information Services (CSIS) is currently responsible for maintaining the statewide student locator database and assisting LEAs to acquire and maintain SSIDs. Once CALPADS is implemented, the SSIDs will be acquired and maintained through CALPADS and the CSIS program will continue to provide assistance to LEAs.
CSIS has some Anomaly Detection and Resolution (ADAR) functionality in place to assist LEAs in identifying and resolving SSID anomalies. In mid June 2008, additional functionality will be made available to LEAs. Visit the SSID Web page for more information. For information specifically on ADAR, visit Statewide Student Identifier Training Schedule and Registration (Outside Source).
