Fields for Export

I'm trying to find some fields built into Power School to identify a Student as a Student and a Teacher as a Teacher. What table and field should I be looking for?

Students and Teachers live in 2 different tables in PowerSchool so I don't think there is a specific field delineating the two.

Did you ever get an answer to this? I am working on setting up an export to a third party and I need to find a field that distinguishes students as a student and teachers/employees as staff.

I don't believe so. I would think the Data Export Manager might work. You can export from the different tables.
