Options:
Stu As-of-Date - The "as of" Oct 1 is attendance, discipline, schedules and lunch. The lunch count is affected by the as of date.
- Only the students with attendance records and/or discipline referrals as of this date will be processed.
- Enrollments for all students who have eScholar IDs are sent. The State will determine the enrollments for OCT 1 based on the enrollment codes.
- If left blank, it will default to today's date during the school year. During the summer, it will use the last day of the school year.
Send Homeless and Migrant Students as LU1 - If selected, students identified as homeless or migrant will always be given Lunch Code LU1. All districts should check this option.
Use SIS school for reporting - Check to use the SIS School instead of the enrollment school. Districts may have programs and/or special schools, that are not included in the Sponsor Site file at DOE, that identify students as being enrolled at other schools in the district at DOE. This school is called the students' SIS school. If you have this situation in your district then you must check this item.
District uses Gold K Assessment - Check if the district uses Gold K assessment so the program sends exception code 4 for DRDP on the 140 record.
Send E1 as C4 - The user MUST check this if the district number has been changed by the DOE since last school year.
Include first day transfers - Check for students who transferred to another school within the same district on the first day of school. This will include the records from the original school. NOTE: Only necessary if the "Try to Fix Errors" box is checked.
Send Graduation Indicators - This selection was added in July of 2018 due to changes at LDOE regarding when graduation information can be sent. This sends the graduation date for seniors who do not have a retention code. Always check this when submitting seniors.
Try to fix errors - Check to update the generated SIS files to correct for common errors in SIS. Entry code and date errors, etc. Any student that was with a district the previous year (as reported in SIS EOY) will be sent with a E1 code with the "fix errors" option.
Virtual Codes - Select Custom Codes to represent Virtual.
- Students with VIR Special Code will automatically be included and reported as Virtual.
