Description of the Relationship between Tables

RELATIONSHIP A 

Each StaffDemographics record will be associated with one or more StaffAssignment record(s). StaffAssignment records are either: (1) teaching assignments, which will include data in the CourseCode and ClassID fields; or (2) administrative or pupil services assignments, which will have data in the AssignmentCode field.

Note: Staff working at more than one district will have a StaffDemographics record for each district – each with the same RecID and a different DistrictCode for each district.

  • Link: RecID + DistrictCode

RELATIONSHIP B 

Each StaffAssignment record will have be associated with or more CoursesTaught record(s). Usually one course is taught in one class (one CoursesTaught record for a class). When more than one course is taught in a class (i.e., a class with two sections; French 1 and French 2), there will be a CoursesTaught record for each course taught in the class.

Note: (1) For team teaching, a CoursesTaught record will have more than one associated StaffAssignment record; (2) Pupil Services and Administrative assignments StaffAssignment records will not have associated CoursesTaught records.

  • Link: DistrictCode + SchoolCode + ClassID + CourseCode
RELATIONSHIP C 

Each StaffAssignment record will be associated with zero, or one or more CourseEnrollment record(s). One CourseEnrollment record will exist for each case where there is enrollment for a grade and gender combination.

Note: For team teaching, CourseEnrollment records will have more than one associated StaffAssignment record.

  • Link: DistrictCode + SchoolCode + ClassID + CourseCode
RELATIONSHIP D 

Each CoursesTaught record will be associated with zero, or one or more CourseEnrollment record(s).

  • Link: DistrictCode + SchoolCode + ClassID + CourseCode + ClassCourseID

Note: Some staff members may not have a credential that is valid on Census Day.
