Report Logic

A record reports for all students enrolled in the selected calendar who meet the following:

  • Enrollment Service Type is Primary (P), Partial (S) or Special Ed Services (N).
  • Grade level of enrollment is 002, 004, 006, 007, 010, 020, 030, 040, 050, 060, 070, 080, 090, 100, 110, 120.
  • The student has a Behavior Event with a State Code of 05: Dangerous Weapon.
  • A record reports for each type of firearm (01: Handgun, 02: Rifle/Shotgun, 03: Other Firearms).
  • The student has a Behavior Resolution to the Behavior Event of 00, 04, 05, 07, 08-11.

A record and appropriate count reports for each individual student who has an applicable behavior incident and behavior resolution where at least one day falls within the reporting period. Students may have more than one record (possibility of 6 total records per student).

When more than one student is tied to an incident, each student reports. See the previous information for rules on reporting multiple event per student.

State Exclude logic is enforced. Students are not reported, even when they meet the above requirements when:

  • The Enrollment is marked as State Exclude or No Show.
  • The Grade level of enrollment is marked as State Exclude.
  • The selected Calendar is marked as State Exclude.
