Re: [LM_NET] Question regarding Destiny

[Paula Yohe <paula_yohe@YAHOO.COM>]

We also use the student information ID for destiny,
lunch, etc.

this for us is actually a State generated ID number so
it really works well.

We use the Destiny SIF agent that automatically
populates Destiny.

This is something that your tech dept. would have to
deal with.
