School Report Card

Contents

Introduction

The School Report Card is not an official report or extract. This report generates the School Report Card in PDF format. The results are examined, and then entered by the school into IWAS.

Attendance views and Attendance Conversions are used in the calculation of attendance days. 

Note: The School Report card requires reporting of partial day students differently from the General State Aid Claim. Be sure to set Attendance Conversions for this report as needed for the partial day students in your district.

Report Sections

The Student Report Card has eight sections; each section of the report uses a different query. These sections are:

ALL GRADES

ALL GRADES IN THIS SCHOOL

1. Student Attendance

A.  Total number of attendance days for all pupils in this school

Query: A student is included in this section when:

  • [Students]SchoolId equals the current school number.
  • [ReEnrollments]SchoolId equals the current school number.
  • [Students]EntryDate (or [ReEnrollments]EntryDate) is before or on the end date entered by the user.
  • [Students]ExitDate (or [ReEnrollments]ExitDate) is on or after the start date entered by the user.
  • [Students]State_ExcludeFromReporting field is not equal to 1.
  • [ReEnrollments]IL_ExcludeFromStateReporting field is not equal to 1. The student is not excluded if a re-enrollment is marked IL_ExcludeFromStateReporting; only the re-enrollment record is ignored.

Furthermore, in the case of Use Current Selection, only students that are selected are included. If these students have re-enrollment records that fall into the user-entered date range, then these rows will be included.

After the student selection is made, the report traverses each row. The Entry and Exit dates from each row are used to count the number of days that the student was present. This is gathered from the PS_ADAADM_Defaults_All table.

1 is added to each student’s attendance total each time the Attendance value is not 0. If the AttendanceValue is null, then 1 is added to the attendance total when Potential_AttendanceValue is not 0 or null.

Each student’s attendance total for each enrollment record is added to the grand total. It is the grand total that is reported.

1

ALL

The count of days that all students in the selected population were present.

N/A

2

Male

The count of days that all male students in the selected population were present.

[Students]Gender = M

3

Female

The count of days that all female students in the selected population were present.

[Students]Gender = F

4

White

The count of days that all students in the selected population with a White state race code were present.

[S_IL_STU_Demographics_X]FER = 16

5

Black

The count of days that all students in the selected population with a Black state race code were present.

[S_IL_STU_Demographics_X]FER = 14

6

Hispanic

The count of days that all students in the selected population with a Hispanic state race code were present.

[S_IL_STU_Demographics_X]FER = 11

7

Asian

The count of days that all students in the selected population with an Asian state race code were present.

[S_IL_STU_Demographics_X]FER = 13

8Native Hawaiian/Pacific IslanderThe count of days that all students in the selected population with a Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander state race code were present.[S_IL_STU_Demographics_X]FER = 15

9

Am. Indian/Alaskan Native

The count of days that all students in the selected population with an American Indian/Alaskan Native state race code were present.

[S_IL_STU_Demographics_X]FER = 12

10

The count of days that all students in the selected population with two or more race state codes were present.

[S_IL_STU_Demographics_X]FER = 17

11

The count of days that all students in the selected population who participate in an EL program were present.

[S_IL_STU_X]LEP = 1

[S_IL_REN_X]LEP = 1

12

Homeless

The count of days all students in the selected population that qualify as homeless were present.

[S_IL_STU_Homeless_X]Homeless = 1



13

Students with IEPs

The count of days all students in the selected population that have an IEP were present.

[S_IL_STU_X]IEP = 1

[S_IL_REN_X]IEP = 1

14

Free/Reduced Price Lunch

The count of days all students in the selected population that qualify for free or reduced price lunch were present.

[S_IL_STU_X]LII = 1

[S_IL_REN_X]LII = 1

Note: EL, IEP, and Free/Reduced Price Lunch  are stored with both the student and the re-enrollment records. Therefore, it is possible that a student’s status can change during the course of the school year. The attendance count reflects this possibility, and only attendance days when the student was so marked are counted towards that demographic. For example, if a male student has 8 total attendances, 4 in the student record where the student is not marked IEP, and 4 during a re-enrollment in which the student is marked IEP, the total for the Male demographic will increase by 8, but the total for the IEP category will only increase by 4.

B.  Total number of absence days for all pupils in this school

Query:  A student is included in this section when:

  • [Students]SchoolId equals the current school number.
  • [ReEnrollments]SchoolId equals the current school number.
  • [Students]State_ExcludeFromReporting field is not equal to 1.
  • [ReEnrollments]IL_ExcludeFromStateReporting field is not equal to 1. The student is not excluded if a re-enrollment is marked IL_ExcludeFromStateReporting; only the re-enrollment record is ignored.
  • [Students]ExitDate is after the start date entered by the user.
  • [Students]EntryDate is before the end date entered by the user.
  • [ReEnrollments]ExitDate is after the start date entered by the user.
  • [ReEnrollments]EntryDate is before the end date entered by the user.

Furthermore, in the case of Use Current Selection, only students that are selected are included. If these students have re-enrollment records that fall into the user-entered date range, then these rows will be included.

After the student selection is made, the report traverses each row. The Entry and Exit dates from each row are used to count the number of days that the student was present. This is gathered from the PS_ADAADM_Defaults_All table.

The potential attendance for the student is calculated by counting the rows where the Potential_AttendanceValue is not null or 0. Then, the number of days that the student was present is calculated by counting the number of days where the AttendanceValue was not 0; or, when the AttendanceValue is null, the day is counted if the Potential_AttendanceValue is not null or zero. The number of days present is then subtracted from the number of potential days present, resulting in the number of days absent.

Each student’s absence total for each enrollment record is added to the grand total. It is the grand total that is reported.

The count of days all students in the selected population were absent.

Therefore, it is possible that a student’s status can change during the course of the school year. The attendance count reflects this possibility, and only absence days when the student was so marked are counted towards that demographic. For example, if a male student has 8 total absences, 4 in the student record where the student is not marked IEP, and 4 during a re-enrollment in which the student is marked IEP, the total for the Male demographic will increase by 8, but the total for the IEP category will only increase by 4.
