The U.S. Department of Education (ED)
is proposing new regulations to implement the Migrant Student
Information Exchange (MSIX), a nationwide, electronic records
exchange mechanism mandated under Title I, Part C of the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by the No Child left
Behind Act. As a condition of receiving a grant of funds under the
Migrant Education Program (MEP), each State educational agency
(SEA) would be required to collect, maintain, and submit minimum
health and education-related data to MSIX within established
timeframes. The proposed regulations would facilitate timely school
enrollment, placement, and accrual of secondary course credits for
migratory children and help us determine accurate migratory child
counts and meet other MEP reporting requirements. The MEP is
authorized under sections 1301-1309 in Title I, Part C of the ESEA.
MSIX and the minimum data elements (MDEs) are authorized
specifically under section 1308(b) of the ESEA. ED is requesting
approval to extend the 1810-0686 information collection that
supports statutory requirements for data collection under Title I,
Part C MEP. The purpose of the MSIX user application is to collect
data to verify the identity of users in order to grant them access
to the MSIX system for the purpose of transferring migrant student
data. The application collects information on an MSIX user's
identity, title/position, work address, work telephone, email, and
role.
