Cross-Site Enrollment Updates

The following updates have been made to Cross-Site Enrollment tools.

NEW Interdistrict Data Sync
A new Interdistrict Cross-Site Data Sync Log tool is available for districts participating in interdistrict enrollment. This log lists any changes included in the overnight data sync job. Users can review the changes made to ensure the changed data is correct.

Cross-Site Configuration
When a course is enabled for Cross-Site, use the Add Section link on the Course Sections tool to add more Cross-Site Sections. The Cross-Site Enrollment checkbox will already be selected, but the Cross-Site Max Students and Cross-Site Instructional Setting fields will need to be populated.

When the participation setting on District Information is changed from Intradistrict to Interdistrict or from Intradistrict & Interdistrict, the existing mapped courses and sections are removed.

Cross-Site Enrollment Setup
When viewing the list of courses in the Home School view, Courses and Sections now display in numeric ascending order.

When viewing the list of courses in the Serving School view, the district name, school name, and calendar names for each school marked for Cross-Site Enrollment are displayed in alphabetic order. The courses and sections are listed in numeric ascending order within each calendar.

The Max Students and the Cross-Site Max Students fields now allow up to three digits.

The list of sections for a Cross-Site Course includes only active sections. Sections that have an End Date in the past are not included.

When the Cross-Site Enrollment Participation field is set to Interdistrict, a Filter by District filter field displays on the Cross-Site Enrollment Setup tool when viewing the Serving School.

A new Pending Roster process has been added to the nightly resync job to remove all pending rosters from the queue. Users at the Home School receive a message and can re-enter the roster changes and try again.

An email is sent to users listed in the Notifications Settings side panel for interdistrict sites when updates are made to sections and/or rosters. It is only sent when the following occurs:

  • Roster Start Date Updated
  • Roster End Date Updated
  • Roster Deleted
  • Roster Created
  • Invalidated Section
  • Updated Section Data

Special Ed State Reporting Flags Functionality Added

In a previous release (October 2024, Campus.2443), the Special Ed Flags sub-right was modified to obey the standard RWAD rules, and Flag rights no longer override the sub-right permissions. This allows users to decide more accurately who can assign Special Education Flags to students. See the Student Information Tool Rights article for additional tool rights information.

This enhancement lets users view and assign Special Education Flags on the Special Education State Reporting tool. Now users can enter state reporting data and assign a Special Education Flag to a student with one tool. This includes managing Special Education Flags assigned to the student via the Student Flag, Batch Program Assignment Wizard, or Task Scheduler tools.

As part of this enhancement, the student's Case Manager automatically pulls into the Flag for the student and displays it in the header when applicable.

The name of this tool may be different in your state:

  • Colorado Setting
  • Delaware Special Education Summary
  • Georgia ACS
  • Kansas Special Ed State Reporting
  • Maine Special Ed State Reporting
  • Massachusetts Special Ed State Reporting
  • Montana State Reported Data
  • New Jersey State Reporting
  • Oklahoma Special Ed State Reporting
  • Pennsylvania State Referral
  • Wisconsin Setting
