• No. student management systems, and other student information systems are not data warehouses; they are used for transactions related to your schools day-to-day business. The data warehouse is part of a data repository that holds all of the mission-critical data that your district wants to use for data-driven decision-making. Although it is not limited to any specific set or type of data, the warehouse typically contains your districts student information data, assessment data, attendance data, and teacher-related information. The district defines the data contained within the warehouse. Student information systems typically hold only student-related information.
