WCSD refuses to provide a list of IC data fields.
Infinite Campus is the most massive data base ever created on students!
Data stored forever in Infinite Campus includes: medical, psychiatric, counseling, discipline, minor discipline, and more!

Parents do NOT have easy access to most Infinite Campus data.
Click on link below to go directly to the point during the 7/27/2021 Washoe County School District board meeting where the District tells the school board some third party vendors have access to EVERYTHING in Infinite Campus! Parents typically only see a sliver of IC data STORED FOREVER about their children.*
A couple years after the data breach the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission fined Pearson Education $1,000,000 for "misleading investors" about the data breach. We at Protect Nevada Children are very concerned about the future of Nevada students because districts are misleading and/or simply not educating parents on the implications of the Infinite Campus data base!
The answer is, NO. The state of Nevada and local school districts treat the most massive data base ever created on children, Infinite Campus, like student data belongs to them, not the students and/or parents! Note - There was a bill during a Nevada Legislative Session that would have corrected this, but it did not pass. At the 43:30 mark in the video below staff said, "Again they (Communities in Schools) do not keep their own system, they access our system..." This was right before a critical vote. A year later we found out CIS does maintain their own database on our students.
Principals also do NOT have access to the Counseling Tab, and it appears most parents don't know the tab exists. We believe this is the tab used by school psychologists, counselors, social workers, and possibly others to enter subjective psychological information about students. Data stored in Infinite Campus is never delete.
The question was not answered. Data entered in the Infinite Campus, including the Counseling Tab, is NEVER deleted. The good news, is the board president said there would be a staff presentation about Infinite Campus at an upcoming WCSD board meeting.
Make sure you ask for ALL data stored on your child in Infinite Campus.
