Arizona Ed-Fi - Setting Up Schools and Enrollments for Tuition Out Students

In Arizona, students residing in a given district may attend all or part of their instruction in a school within a different district. These students, sometimes referred to as "Tuition Out", "Outplacement", etc., require a unique enrollment setup, which in turn triggers the appropriate Student School Association (SSA) information to be sent, along with the appropriate Student Education Organization Association (AzEDS 5.0) or Student School Association Local Education Organization (SSALEO). 

Below are the scenarios identified thus far that encompass this issue, and identify which data we are transmitting that becomes the District of Residence (DOR) within ADE, and the District of Attendance (DOA):

 

Scenario 1 - Students in your District, Attending at your School

The following describes how to set up student enrollments and a school for this scenario:

Attending School : Yours

District From: Yours

  1. Set up the student's enrollment record so that the Resident District (Student Information > General > Enrollment > Resident District) is set to the DOR School (this would be your district).

  2. Set up the School so that you're tying them together by setting the Entity ID = DOA School (this would be your school) (System Administration > Resources > School > Entity ID)

  3. In that same School, set the District Entity ID = Blank (System Administration > Resources > School > District Entity ID)

Scenario 2 - Students Attending your School, Coming from Another District

The following describes how to set up student enrollments and a school for this scenario:

Attending School : Yours

District From: Outside

  1. Set up the student's enrollment record so that the Resident District (Student Information > General > Enrollment > Resident District) is set to the DOR School (the school/district they are coming from).

  2. Set up the School so that you're tying them together by setting the Entity ID = DOA School (this would be your school) (System Administration > Resources > School > Entity ID)

  3. In that same School, set the District Entity ID = Blank (System Administration > Resources > School > District Entity ID)

Scenario 3 - Students Attending School Outside Your District, Coming From Your District (Setup as a District)

The following describes how to set up student enrollments and a school for this scenario:

Attending School : Outside - Set up as a District

District From: Yours

  1. Set up the student's enrollment record so that the Resident District (Student Information > General > Enrollment > Resident District) is set to the DOR School (your district).

  2. Set up the School so that you're tying them together by setting the Entity ID = DOA School (the outplacement school the student will be attending) (System Administration > Resources > School > Entity ID)

  3. In that same School, set the District Entity ID = DOA School (the district the outplacement school is in) (System Administration > Resources > School > District Entity ID)

Scenario 4 - Students Attending a Different School within Your District

The following describes how to set up student enrollments and a school for this scenario:

Attending School : Different school within district – Set up as a School

District From: Yours

  1. Set up the student's enrollment record so that the Resident District (Student Information > General > Enrollment > Resident District) is set to the DOR School (your district).

  2. Set up the School so that you're tying them together by setting the Entity ID = DOA School (the outplacement school within your district) (System Administration > Resources > School > Entity ID)

  3. In that same School, set the District Entity ID = Blank (System Administration > Resources > School > District Entity ID)
