As of 8 A.M. November 9th, your district had submitted ISES data for the current collection, but was missing most or all Year End data for the 2005-06 school term. By 4 P.M. on November 22nd all Year End and Count Date data should be submitted, verified and locked.

Timely completion of the ISES Collection is very important to facilitate use of ISES data for required purposes this year. As mentioned previously, the absence of complete and accurate data in ISES and WSLS for your district may be preventing other districts from completing their data submission and will prevent the processing of data by the Department of Public Instruction for such purposes as federal grants, E-Rate enrollment, ESEA Report Card, IDEA compliance, Adequate Yearly Progress, School Performance Report, and publication on WINSS. Anticipated uses of ISES data vary by data element and are listed on the Web pages describing each data element, http://dpi.wi.gov/lbstat/eseamap.html#data.

We appreciate the work that has been completed to date and would like to help you have data that are as valid, reliable, and useful as possible. Please contact the WSLS/ISES helpdesk if you have questions or concerns, via phone, 800-507-5744, or via the online Help Desk Expert tool, http://dpi.wi.gov/lbstat/helptool.html.
