Ed-Fi Framework: Optimized Student Publishing Selection

When publishing Ed-Fi data for selected students, the system now processes only the specific schools where those students have an active enrollment, re-enrollment, or course schedule record for the current school year. Previously, student selection requests evaluated all schools within the district regardless of enrollment status. This update eliminates unnecessary background processing and significantly improves publishing speed and efficiency.

Selecting this option submits all eligible data across all enabled Ed-Fi resources for the selected staff member, capturing both new/unpublished records and existing entries.
