Obtain Feeder Students

This program allows school sites to obtain students from feeder school sites for the upcoming school year.

• Some districts allow schools to do this procedure, while in others it is a function reserved for the District Coordinator. If unsure, contact your District Coordinator.
• If the Student Master Next School field was used to direct feeder students to upcoming year sites, this program is not normally used. Consult with your District Coordinator if unsure.
