PSSR-291426Assessment Pre-Code Updates to Support Single Semester EOC Courses

PSSR-292971New Nightly Process for As of Status Code Calculations and Student As-of-Status Page

Updates are now available to support the As-of-Status Code calculations for the PEIMS Fall and Summer Submissions for both TEA Legacy and Ed-Fi reporting for the 2022-23 school year. Student As-of-Status Codes will no longer be calculated on the fly within the Student Interchange. Instead, the calculations will now run during a new Texas nightly process. The resulting calculations are stored in the database and available within the UI.

  • New As-of-Status Child Table and Page
    • A new child table of students now stores the calculated Fall and End of Year As-of-Status Codes: S_TX_STU_AOS_C
    • The calculated values are based on the student enrollment records and are displayed as read-only on a new As of Status Calculation page available under the State/Province – TX link.
      • School Year: YearID
      • Fall As of Status Last Friday October: AS_OF_STATUS_FALL
        • Not Applicable (equivalent of NULL)
        • (A) Enrolled PY; Not Enrolled Current Year
        • (B) Enrolled School-Start Window; Enrolled Fall As Of Date
        • (C) Enrolled School-Start Window; Not Enrolled Fall As Of Date
        • (D) Enrolled PY; Not Enrolled School-Start Window; Enrolled Fall As Of Date
        • (E) Enrolled PY and CY; Not Enrolled School-Start Window; Not Enrolled Fall As Of Date
        • (F) Not Enrolled PY; Not Enrolled School-Start Window; Enrolled Fall As Of Date
        • (G) Not Enrolled PY; Enrolled CY; Not Enrolled School-Start Window; Not Enrolled Fall As Of Date
        • (X) Students in Grades EE-06 and First Time 7th Graders
      • Leaver School: LEAVER_SCHOOL_FALL_R (reportable campus ID of the Leaver record school)
      • Leaver Reason: LEAVER_REASON_FALL (reportable Leaver Reason Code)
      • EOY As-of-Status: AS_OF_STATUS_EOY
        • (H) Enrolled on Final Day of School
        • (I) Not Enrolled on Final Day of School
        • (X) Student in Grades EE-06
      • AOS Comment: AOS_Comment
      • Additional, internal fields are populated in the As-of-Status table, but not displayed in the UI.
    • The student’s current and previous enrollments are also displayed at the bottom of the page using the same model as implemented in the PEIMS General Record and in Special Programs.
  • PEIMS General Record: Modified for 7th Grade Repeaters
    • The existing As-Of Status Override field is hidden in all records dated 08/01/2022 and beyond.
    • The purpose of this field was to override coding of students who were in 7th grade in the previous year in a previous district.
    • A new 7th Grade Repeater field is added in its place: S_TX_STU_STATE_GEN_C.Grade_7_Repeater
      • This element displays a dropdown list with values of (0) No and (1) Yes - default is 0.
      • On-screen text: "7th Grade Repeater should be selected only when a current grade 7 student was enrolled in a different district in grade 7 in the prior year; used for the Fall As-of-Status calculation."
    • The Fall As-of-Status Code calculation for 7th Grade Repeaters is also modified to reference the new field with the following logic:
      • If the value is set to (0) No or NULL, the field is ignored.
      • If the value is set to (1) Yes:
        • If the student's Fall Snapshot grade level is not 7, the field is ignored.
        • If the student's Fall Snapshot Grade Level is 7, the student's Fall as of Status is calculated and stored with a value of B-G.
  • Nightly Process for As-of-Status Code Calculations
    • Fall As-of-Status is calculated for:
      • Prior Year Grade 7 Repeaters
      • All prior year leavers enrolled in grades 7-12 at some point in the prior year with no active enrollment in the current year on or before the Fall Snapshot Date.
      • All students enrolled in the current year in grades 8-12 with at least one day of enrollment on or before the Fall Snapshot Date
      • All students in grades EE-06 and first time 7th graders who are enrolled on the Fall Snapshot Date
    • EOY As of Status Last Day of Enrollment is calculated for all students enrolled at least one day during the school year.
    • As student enrollment records are updated in PowerSchool, the As-of-Status Code calculation is updated if applicable and the new value is stored in the database. If the student’s AOS Code has not changed, the existing record is left intact.

  • Results for STAAR EOC Alternate 2, STAAR 3-8 and STAAR 3-9 Alternate 2 can be processed using the .txt version of the files only.
  • Each version of the test and test results file is processed as a separate file for import.

    • A zip file for each assessment is output.
      • Records with a match to a PowerSchool student number and which have a reportable Score Code are added to the QuickImport .csv file. This file is ready for import into PowerSchool using the Quick Import feature.
