Tool Search: Class Size Average (K-12) Report
The Class Size Average (K-12) Report calculates and projects average class enrollment for an entered date range or for the entire year. It also includes or excludes (default choice) students in active Independent Study programs as marked on the student's enrollment record. The report can be generated for one grade level or for multiple grade levels.

Best Practice
To generate this report for the purpose of seeing the J-7 Class Size Reduction YTD Average, use the first day of school as both the From and To dates in the Date Range fields and April 15 as the Report Date. YTD Average reports for the J-7 Extract. Doing this allows the report to be generated on the future values but not generate as many report pages.
Report Logic
The following record population rules apply:
- Courses in which students are enrolled during the entered date range on the report editor report.
- The active teacher(s) during the date range selected on the report editor report.
- The Include IS Student checkbox on the editor indicates whether students in Program 111 or 170 (Independent Study) are included in the student count. When marked, those students report; when not marked (default selection), they do not report.
The following business rules apply:
- Course sections can be selected by either the teacher name or the course section name.
- Students marked as State Exclude or in a grade level marked as State Exclude are counted in class roster counts.
- Data reports for each date within the range. An empty row displays between records for individual course sections.
Teachers display in the Teacher/Section list based on the selected calendar. If the teacher had an active District Assignment record within the selected calendar, information reports for that teacher if the district assignment is active during the entered date range.
If the District Assignment record ended before the date range, the teacher does not report. If the District Assignment record begins after the entered date range, the teacher does not report.

Field |
Description |
---|---|
Date Range |
Class roster data as of the entered From date and the To date reports. Dates are entered in mmddyy format or can be entered by selecting the calendar icon to choose a date. The date range must include as least one instructional day in order for data to be reported. |
Report Date |
This date sets the total number of instructional days for the calculation of the YTD Average. If the report date entered is not an instructional day, the closest instructional day prior to the report date is used. Dates are entered in mmddyy format or can be entered by selecting the calendar icon to choose a date. The end date of the Date Range is selected by default but can be changed. |
Grade Level |
Select at least one grade level from the list. "All grades" is the default. Since the report requires the selection of a calendar in the Campus toolbar to return data, select those grade levels in the selected calendar. |
Report By |
Determine how to report the information by choosing one of the following:
|
Include IS Students |
When marked, students in Programs 111 or 170 (Independent Study) are included in the counts. |
Exclude Cross-Site Data
|
When marked, students enrolled in Cross-Site Enrollment courses are not included in the report.
|
Format |
The report can be printed in either PDF format or CSV format. |
Select Course Departments/Courses/Section/Teacher |
Select which departments, courses, sections or teachers (depending on the Report By selection) to include in the report. |
Calendar Selection |
Select from which calendar to report class size information. When generating the report by Department, Course or Teacher, multiple calendars can be selected; when generating the report by Section, only one calendar can be selected. |
Report Generation | Because of the size of the report and the amount of data that could be returned, users can choose to generate the report immediately using the Generate Report button. Or, to generate the report at a later time (maybe after school hours), the report can be generated using Batch Queue functionality. |
