Answer

When a district submits its NDIT PowerSchool Data Replication Request, all PowerSchool data is backed up on an NDIT-hosted environment for migration into Infinite Campus and maintained past June 30. This process is required and serves as the official data backup. No additional manual backups are required for districts. NDDPI will collaborate with NDIT to determine future plans for district data backed up in this environment. More information will be shared as the migration process continues.
