Subject:

Designation of Identified Official with Authority for Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) Secure Website Access

Background:

The Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) has set up a process for assigning an Identified Official with Authority.  The system is called the External User Access Recertification System and the process, implemented in Spring 2015, will provide consistency for external user access to all MDE secured systems protected by an MDE User Account.
The School Board must designate the Identified Official with Authority to authorize user access annually, as well as any time there is a change in the assignment of the Identified Official with Authority.  This certification of the Identified Official with Authority designation is in accordance with Minnesota State Access Control Security Standard 1.0.  The District may assign this role to more than one person or to a person other than the Superintendent or Director.  The School Board minutes must clearly specify this role assignment.

Recommended Action:

It is recommended that the School Board of Independent School District #77 designate Paul Peterson, Superintendent, and Barb Macrafic, Administrative Assistant to the Superintendent/School Board Deputy Clerk to the role of Identified Official with Authority.
