RITS

There are two platforms on which you can search for, request new, or edit SASIDs. These are RITS Web and a Data Pipeline file upload. See the RITS Web or RITS Data Pipeline tabs for more information.

When a student enrolls in your district, it's important to diligently check for an existing SASID before requesting a new SASID. This is to prevent duplicate SASIDs or, more than one SASID assigned to a student, as SASIDs are also used for funding purposes. For this reason, it is best to review legal documentation when possible. These legal documents can be used for verification of name, and date of birth, however, should not be retained on file unless the LEA has a legal need for retaining the documents on file.

Please note that the above does not constitute legal advice. Please refer to your Local Education Agency (LEA) legal counsel if you have further questions or for your LEA specific enrollment policies. Below is a list of legislation you may need to address with your LEA's legal council if you have questions.

Data Pipeline Resources: Gender Field Update

Coming Soon

As student enrollment begins for the upcoming school year, districts will need to search for existing SASIDs for incoming students and request new SASIDs for students new to the state or public education. Searching for existing SASIDs and requesting new SASIDs are part of the same file upload process in the Data Pipeline.

Using the SASID Data Pipeline File Upload Template (XLSX), complete all data fields except the SASID field, being sure that data formatting is correct and leading zeros have not been dropped. Use NMN (no middle name) if no middle name is known.
