What is the role of
TX-NGS
/MSIX data specialist in
migrant service coordination?
The TX-NGS/MSIXMigrant Student Information Exchange data entry specialist also has an important role in assisting migratory students and families by ensuring that all data is
accurately entered into the statewide TX-NGS database in a timely manner. MEPMigrant Education Program staff across the United States are dependent on the
accuracy of the TX-NGS data in order to either offer needed services not yet provided or to continue services already initiated for
migratory students and families.
Following are some suggested data entry services which may help migratory students:
-
Ensure the following activities are addressed accurately as per the timelines and descriptions outlined in the
TX-NGS/MSIXMigrant Student Information Exchange
Manual:
-
Encode all supplemental academic and support services received by migratory students and parents for each
individual migratory student.
-
For any child age 3-5 not enrolled in A Bright Beginning, Pre-kindergarten, or Kindergarten but who is enrolled in
any other early childhood program, write the name of the program in which they are enrolled in the comments
section of the student’s record.
-
Note any services or programs each OSYOut-of-School Youth student is enrolled in, such as a
High School Equivalency Program, in the comments section of each
student’s record.
-
Generate, print and distribute all reports to the designated MEPMigrant Education Program, district, or
campus staff member as per guidance from the MEPMigrant Education Program coordinator and/or
director. Refer to the
Responsibilities of Independent Project Districts
