  • Two new Incident Types have been provided: State Reportable^ and Non-State Reportable. The availability of the Incident Type is based on the Group Settings and the Incident Type is not available by default. Administrators can navigate to the Group, Accessible Incident Types Section and select the required Incident Type for the required Group.

  • All the State Supported/Related Codes/Descriptor Values have a ^ symbol at the end of the Code/Value.

  • As per the 23-24 DOE requirements, the below-mentioned fields have been loaded with the values required for the publishing of the Discipline Data. These codes are available under the Incident Elements:

    • Action Codes and Action Services.

    • Student Arrest

    • Student Arrest Reason

    • Interim Alternative Education

    • Behavior Codes

    • Criminal Gang-Related Event Codes under the Attribute
