Published: 11/26/2024 10:55 AM

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The Kentucky Department of Education collects student and financial data from K-12 schools and districts using enterprise data systems including Infinite Campus and MUNIS. This data is crucial for federal and state reporting, funding calculations, and research and analysis to support data-driven decision-making. Parents and students can access their student-level data through their individual Infinite Campus Student or Parent Portal accounts. See below for publicly available aggregated K-12 education data.

    • School Report Card Datasets: Downloadable datasets for card information that can be used for analysis or filtered to view specific attributes of the school, district, or state level. Consistent identifiers are used to assist with matching data from multiple files starting from the 2011-2012 school year. 
    • Student/Parent Portal: Provides grades, assignments, attendance announcements, schedules, and more specific for your student.​

​Supplemental Education Datasets

Supplemental datasets include information made available after the annual School Report Card dashboard ​​release and data not included in the School Report Card.​​
