WSLS • To assign permanent, unique, and unduplicated identification numbers to students. • To maintain data as students move between schools and to ensure that the unique WSN moves with them. • Used in lieu of names to collect data through Individual Student Enrollment System (ISES).
ISES • To report disaggregated data by school as required to produce federal mandated reports. • To collect other data necessary for future consolidation and reduction of related collections.

District & School Contact Information and Preferences • Verify that the Primary and Secondary contacts for your schools are the individuals who work on a day to day basis in the WSLS. • Preferences are used to set important indicators such as file type for uploads and downloads. • Access to the Preferences screen is based on user role. If you are unable to make modifications, contact the WSLS / ISES Local Administrator for your district or someone with the All Functions role.
A student is reported to the WSLS in your district if either • the student is enrolled in and receiving primary educational services from your district, or • the student was placed by a parent or guardian in a private school, but receives special education or related services from your district that meet state standards under a service plan.
A student is "enrolled" in your district if the student receives his/her primary PK-12 educational services either • directly from district employees, or • from a third party (not another Wisconsin public school district) under the direct supervision of your district. Services provided by district employees or third parties might be received in a school building, library, hospital, county corrections, college, or any other location, and services include but are not limited to IEP services.
A student is enrolled in one and only one district in the WSLS at any given point in time. If a student receives services from multiple districts simultaneously, then submit the student as enrolled in the district that most directly supervises the primary educational services for this student.
Example 1: If pursuant to District A IEP a student with disabilities is receiving his/her primary educational services from District B, then District B submits data for that student. Example 2: If pursuant to District A IEP a student with disabilities is served by the Wisconsin School for the Deaf and if the School for the Deaf has an agreement with District B to provide some services to the student, then District A would submit data for this student. Example 3: If a student attends District A under part-time open enrollment, but the student's primary educational services are provided by District B, then District B would submit data for the student. (Note: If a student attends District A under a full-time open enrollment program, then District A would submit data for the student.)
