SC02 Cumulative Class Report

Contents

Introduction

The Cumulative Class Report totals all EIA classification code occurrences by grade from the beginning of the school year up to and including a specific date or school day. An extract option is available and includes preparing data for 45 day and 135 day state reporting. The output is avaialble in pdf and CSV formats.

Report Processing

Prior to creating the Cumulative Class extract file for submission to the SC Department of Education for key funding dates, you must run a SC01 EFA/EIA Data Verification report that is error-free for the Cumulative Class option. If the SC01 EFA/EIA Data Verification Report was not run since the last Cumulative Class extract was created, the following message displays: “You must run the Data Verification report for the Cumulative Class option and be error-free before you can create the Cumulative Class extract.”

To respond to this message:

  1. Click OK to close the message.

  2. Close the Cumulative Class Report option.

  3. Run the SC01 EFA/EIA Data Verification Report with the Cumulative Class option.

If the log file shows that the SC01 EFA/EIA Data Verification Report was run without error for the Cumulative Class option, an EIA data validation process is run for the Cumulative Class option without generating the report. If errors occur in any of the validations, the following message displays: “You must run the Data Verification report for the Cumulative Class option and be error-free before you can create the Cumulative Class extract.” This message displays in the report queue as a .pdf file instead of the formatted Cumulative Class report.

Extract Design

When you choose the Report and Extract output option when running the SC02 Cumulative Class Report, the report is generated in PDF format. In addition, records representing the content of that report are inserted into a custom South Carolina database table. You can use these records to re-create the report at a later time. One set of these records for the 45th day and 135th day of school is used for submission to the SC Department of Education for state funding.

When the extract is created, the table SC_EFA_EIA_HEADER will hold the report header information and SC_EFA_EIA_EXTRACT will hold the detail report content.

If a report and extract are created, and there are no counts for any EIA codes included on the report, the report is still generated but the extract is not created and the data is not inserted into the table. The following message displays on the report: “There are no EIA records for this report period. The extract will not be created.”

Selection Criteria

Selection criteria determine which database records are used in the report. For the SC02 Cumulative Class Report, student enrollment records are selected. Refer to selection criteria for analysis when the report does not return the correct records.

Student Selection

The report tabulates students’ EIA history records applicable to the report period. A student record is selected if it meets the following criteria:

  • The Include in State Reporting field is set to Yes for that student record.

  • The student was enrolled with a funded enrollment code at any time from the beginning of the school year through the report date specified by the user.

A student record is excluded if:

  • The Include in State Reporting field is set to No for that student record.

  • The student was enrolled during the report period with an enter code of “xxi” where “xx” is any character and “i” is the letter “i” in lower or upper case.

  • The student’s most current withdrawal from the school during the report period was an in-district transfer (the student’s exit code is “W1*” where “*” is any character). If these students are coded for EIA, they are counted at the school where they are currently enrolled in the district.

  • The student record has an enrollment record with the same enter date and exit date (no show) in the currently selected school year; the student’s grade level is not equal to 99; and the school ID is not the Graduated Students School.

All of a student’s EIA records for the report period are included on the report if the student had a school enrollment or withdrawal on a date that is within the report period. That is, for all EIA codes in effect on a date that a student enrolls or withdraws from school, the student is listed for those EFA classifications.

Note: If at least one student included on this report has a mismatch between their initial school enrollment date for the selected year and their initial EFA start date for the selected year, the following warning message will print at the bottom of the report: “Warning: Errors were found in EFA history information. Please run the data verification report and correct reported issues.”
