Sherwood SD 88J to phase into cloud version of Infinite Visions, keep desktop in transition
Summary
Committee discussed a planned phased move to the cloud version of Infinite Visions managed by the ESD, with provisional access, data validation and retention of the desktop system for a transition period to avoid reporting gaps.
Committee members asked whether Sherwood SD had migrated to the cloud version of Infinite Visions. Staff said the Education Service District (ESD) had not yet transitioned the district but that the ESD planned a phased rollout: provisional access to a copy of the data, validation and then final data transfer. The district expects to keep the desktop version available for a couple of years so reporting can continue if problems arise during the transition.
The committee and auditors agreed cloud versions can be more user friendly and improve data extraction, but they cautioned that software transitions often have hiccups and stressed the value of a later phased implementation to avoid early problems.
