School Enrollment Template
Contents
Introduction
This template contains the student enrollment and withdrawal transactions at each school within each LEA and is used to track student mobility. At least one record should exist in this template for every student enrolled in an LEA at any time during the school year.
Selection Criteria
Selection criteria determine which database records are used in the report.
The student must have an enrollment record between the selected start and end date of the report.
The student must be enrolled in a school for which the report is run.
The student cannot be excluded from state reporting.
Certain students are excluded from this report based on Graduation Status, Special Ed Referral, and District of Enrollment. Please refer to your PIMS Manual for details about these exclusions.
Summer Withdrawal Students
Summer Withdrawal students are identified by the Summer Withdrawal Yes/No flag on the Enrollment record for the year for which you are running the report. For example, if the student left during the summer between 2016-17 and 2017-18, he/she must have a 2017-18 enrollment record and Summer Withdrawal must be set to Yes.
Students identified as Summer Withdrawal will only be included if the option "Include Summer Withdrawals" is selected; this means you can include them on the first submission of the year and afterwards exclude them.
Any Summer Withdrawal student will be reported with both an Entry Date and Exit Date of July 1 of the current school year, regardless of the actual Entry/Exit Date on the Current Enrollment page.
If a Summer Withdrawal student later enrolls in the current school year, the Enrollment record with Summer Withdrawal selected will then become a Previous Enrollment (Reenrollment record) and the new Current Enrollment will no longer be considered a Summer Withdrawal.
No show students (that is, students with an Exit Date equal to their Entry Date) will not be included unless both Summer Withdrawal and Include Summer Withdrawals options are selected.
