JPSD is seeking a vendor that can supply/provide a system for creating student IDs. The system must be able to communicate with the district’s current Student Information System (SIS) in order to generate the demographic data needed to correspond with each student’s information. The software must allow the district to import photos and other demographic information to the system. As an option, when a student attends an off-campus event and the student is suspended, expelled, or does not have the state-mandated vaccinations to attend school, when the ID badge is scanned an alert or notification is given immediately to the person who is scanning the ID. The system must use the currently assigned student ID number generated by the state. Thus, the student ID card must have the flexibility to be used for lunch as well. The software package must be included in the purchase of the identification system. The software must import all student photos to the system, in addition to school-based personnel having the ability to take a picture with a webcam. The system must allow the printing to take place at a central location in the district office. The system should be able to print district logo as well as school name and/or logos to identify each school site. The system should also be made available for school administrators to request new ID badges in the software for any broken, lost badges or for any new students. The software should have the capability for school staff to scan in at the front entrance, office, classroom, and any set locations where activities are held within the school building. The software should be able to output data reports for attendance as well as special activity reports; both at the school level as well as district level. The district will like the ID badge to primary method of use for all students; however, a secondary option for middle and high school students is having the ability to have their ID on his/her respective cell phone, which cannot be duplicated by a photograph. This must be done through an application.
