Schools/School InfoSchools/School Info > Edit School For AzEDS reporting of Tuitioned-Out students, it will be necessary to create a separate Tuitioned-Out school (or schools) to house your tuitioned-out students. Tuitioned-Out students can either be placed in separate schools within PowerSchool (one school for each separate entity), or can be placed in a single PowerSchool school (overriding the School EntityID at the student level). See Knowledgebase article 75918 located on PowerSource for more information on Tuitioned-Out schools and students. Note: Typically Districts will use the Separate Schools model for their Head Start programs and the Single School model for their Private Care Facility students. AOI Schools require specific setup steps for accurate AzEDS reporting. See the Arizona Online Instruction (AOI) Information Page located on PowerSource for more information regarding AOI School and Student setup requirements. | |||
