As North Dakota moves forward with BRIDGE, our K-12 data modernization solution, it’s essential for districts to begin preparing for the changes that will come with the new Infinite Campus Student Information System (SIS) and associated data systems. The transition to a modernized system represents a significant shift in how student data is collected, stored, and shared across the state.

Beginning in October, Infinite Campus will work with LEAs to work toward the implementation of the student information system (SIS). This is one of several pieces included in BRIDGE, the state's K-12 data modernization solution. To ensure a smooth transition to the new SIS, the Infinite Campus implementation team has outlined several critical preparations, or "extra credit" opportunities. 

The North Dakota Department of Public Instruction is continuing its partnership with Infinite Campus to implement BRIDGE a statewide K-12 data modernization solution. More than just a student information system, BRIDGE will streamline reporting, improve data quality, and simplify processes for districts.
