Tool Search: Census
Census tracks every person entry in Infinite Campus - parents, staff, students, emergency contacts, doctors, etc. Demographic data is used throughout Campus, utilizing historic and current details of each person. Some fields in the Census module are unique to each state. Other fields in the Census module do not require unique, state-specific data. However, many of these fields are required and data entry in these fields is necessary.
The Identities tool acts as an historical record of the person's demographic information. While the information on the Demographics tool is displayed on the Identities tool, changes should be made here.
Types of changes include:
Previous identity information is not lost when it is modified, but an end date is entered for the previous identity and a start date is entered for the new identity.
See the core Identities article for information on necessary tool rights, available Ad hoc fields, and guidance on adding and printing Identities records.

The Demographics tool is the basic area for viewing general person information within Campus. All people for whom data is tracked, including students, staff, parents/guardians, household members, etc., have a Demographics record, which includes name and gender from the Identities record, student and staff identification numbers and contact information.
See the core Demographics article for information on necessary tool rights, available Ad hoc fields, and guidance on adding and printing Demographics records.
Person Identifiers like Student Number and Student State ID are used in state reports to identity student records. Staff identification - Local Staff ID, State Staff ID - are also recorded here.

Reports:
Indicates what portion of the employeeโs FTE percent this particular district assignment represents.
The field accepts both decimal and whole numbers (e.g., .5 or 50 to represent a half-time assignment). It is important for consistency and accuracy of reporting that the same numbering system is used for all employees (e.g. FTE of Assignment in decimal format for all employees).
FTE of Assignment is different than the FTE Percent on the District Employment editor.
This value is linked to the District Assignment on the Section Staff History tool.
For Non-Teaching Assignments, the entered value reports on the Staff Assignment Extract.
For Teaching Assignments that are not active on the Last Friday in September, the entered value in this field is divided by the total number of sections the staff person is actively teaching during the Staff Assignment Extract reporting period that are not active on the Last Friday in September. This logic enables Sections not active on the last Friday in September to report the FTE captured on the teacher's linked district assignment, divided by the cumulative number of sections taught.
For Teaching Assignments that are active on the Last Friday in September, the entered value is divided by the total number of sections the teacher is actively teaching during the reporting period that are active on the Last Friday in September. This logic enables Sections active on the last Friday in September to report the same FTE value through the end of the year.
