Email TopicRenaissance Analytics allows you to filter and view students based on their student information and characteristics.
Student information comes to Renaissance Analytics from your Renaissance software. If you are using the CDI service, that information may originate in your school information system. If not, some student information is entered when you add or edit students, and other information is set when you assign student characteristics to students in Renaissance. See the table below for more information.
Renaissance Analytics only uses the student information listed in the table below; other information that you have set in Renaissance software are not available in Renaissance Analytics.
