universal student identifiers creates an opportunity to collect such data systematically, many districts have yet to develop the capacity for tracking absences for individual students.
The inadvertently disclosed data included
universal student identifiers (USIs), names, ages, grade level, race, local education agency (LEA) and school of attendance, disability categories and services for 12,000 District students receiving individualized education plan (IEP) services.
