School Setup
Contents
Introduction
The following data elements are required for school setup. The first two pages of navigation are removed for brevity:
Start Page > School Setup.
- On the Start Page, click the School link. The school list appears.
- Choose a school from the pop-up menu. The school start page appears.
- Click School. The School Setup page appears.
Notes:
- Additional information for setting up sections at the school level follows:
- The section record can also impact the staff responsibility record if a district chooses to store PEIMS data on this record.
- Texas State Reporting – PEIMS has a dependency on data from the prior school year for building leavers on the 203 record. For new implementations and new schools being added to PowerSchool, the prior school year Years and Terms must be defined at the school level i.e. if 2015-2016 is the first school year that PowerSchool is being used, set up Years and Terms for 2014-2015 and 2015-2016. At least one valid in-session date must be defined in the calendar setup for the prior year.
- For more information on code values, see the 2022-09-05_09-25-58_Appendix.
