Common: Discipline Incident Letters Update

TN Ed-Fi v6 and v7: Improved Attendance Publishing for Students with Remote or Concurrent Enrollments

Tennessee Ed-Fi reporting has been updated to improve attendance calculations and publishing for students with remote or concurrent school enrollments. Attendance calculations now correctly include potential, absent, and present minutes from remote school enrollments, helping ensure that students are reported accurately based on their attendance records. For days involving at least one remote or concurrent enrollments, attendance determination now relies on meeting attendance alone rather than a Bridge period or Daily Attendance.

Publishing Consideration:
Districts should ensure the "Other primary schools that should report this section" field on Section Setup is configured correctly, as it is used to identify remote enrollments when determining attendance for remotely attended classes. This update applies to both current-year and prior-year attendance publishing. i.e. both Ed-Fi v7.3 and v6.0.

District Action Required:
Districts must republish the Attendance resource category in Data Exchange page to apply this update. Attendance records can be republished using Publish Changes or Publish All. Districts may also use Publish Selection to republish attendance records for selected students only.

TN Ed-Fi: CTSO information in separate Student Demographics record at School level

Tennessee Ed-Fi reporting for v7.3 and later has been updated to align with Tennessee Department of Education (TDOE) requirements for reporting CTSO club memberships. For students participating in CTSO organizations, such as DECA and FFA, who have data stored accordingly in the student’s CTSO page, an additional Student Demographics record will now be published at the school level using the School ID as the Education Organization ID. This record includes CTSO chapter and membership identifiers in the student identification codes array for the student's primary enrollment. This change helps ensure CTSO membership information is reported according to TDOE requirements.

District Action Required:

Districts that report CTSO memberships must republish the Student Demographics resource category in Data Exchange to submit school-level CTSO identification records to the Ed-Fi ODS.

Publishing Consideration:

CTSO records with the same start and end dates will not be accepted by the Ed-Fi ODS and will not publish successfully. Additionally, if a student has CTSO records created at multiple schools during the same school year, a separate school-level Student Demographics record will be published for each school where CTSO membership records exist.

PSSR-444123

TN Ed-Fi: Student Demographics Published at District Level instead of School Enrollment Level

Tennessee Ed-Fi reporting for v7.3 and later has been updated to publish a single Student Demographics (StudentEducationOrganizationAssociation) record per student at the district level using the district ID as the Education Organization ID rather than publishing multiple records per school enrollment. Additionally, non-lunch and lunch classifications reported as student characteristic descriptors are now validated against district term dates and not school term dates.

District Action Required:

Districts must republish the Student Demographics resource category in Data Exchange page using the Publish All option to clear redundant records and also for the new demographics record at district level to publish to the ODS.

Publishing Consideration:

Duplicate Non lunch or lunch records present in SIS for a student, will not be accepted by the Ed-Fi ODS and will not publish successfully.
