What is a Data Reset?
A data reset is the process of preparing returning customers for a new school year by clearing out old academic data before rostering occurs in the new school year. All resets must occur at the district level, which triggers a concurrent data reset for all schools within the district. In the Imagine Math suite, no student data is saved or stored year over year.
A yearly data reset ensures that obsolete, unauthorized, or inactive student information does not propagate from year to year across products. This work is critical for meeting FERPA requirements and supporting customer privacy agreements.
Reset Window:
The 2023 universal default reset date is July 28, 2023.
- Districts that do not respond to their CSM's correspondence regarding EOY processes will be reset on July 28, 2023.
- Leave the reset date as July 28th if your school year and summer school session both end before July 28th.
- Districts that want a different reset date must contact their CSM. You may choose any date June 19th or after as long as the reset takes place BEFORE rostering for the new school year.
- If your school year and/or summer school session end after July 28th, select the earliest possible date after their conclusion.
- All automated nightly import syncs will pause on the reset date and will be turned back on when your rostering for the new year is complete.
Recommendation
Because no math data is stored year after year, download a copy of this year's data for your records before your reset date occurs.
