Search Terms: Enrollments
The Enrollment tool displays all occurrences of a student’s enrollment in the district. Because this is an historical view, this list could be long.
By default, enrollments are first sorted by grade level and sorted by enrollment start date second. To reorder the list of enrollments, click the blue headers in the Enrollments Editor list. The list of enrollments can be sorted by Grade, Calendar, Start Date or End Date.
See the core Enrollments article for information on necessary tool rights, available Ad hoc fields, and guidance on adding and printing Enrollment records.
General Enrollment Information
Classic View: Student Information > General > Enrollments > General Enrollment Information
The General Enrollment Information editor describes the calendar, schedule, grade, start/end date and reason for the creation or ending of the enrollment record. Both the Start and End Status fields are unique to the state of California. California reporting also relies heavily on Service Type when populating reports. These fields are further described below. All other fields in General Enrollment Information do not require unique, state-specific data. However, many of these fields are required and data entry in these fields is necessary. For more information on these fields, see theEnrollmentspage.
General Enrollment Information Editor
Start Status and Start Date
Start Status indicates the reason for beginning the student enrollment, whether entering the school or district or continuing on from another grade. The Start Date indicates the start date of the enrollment record. When creating an enrollment for a student, students must have a Start Date and a Start Status. An enrollment cannot be saved without an entry in these fields.
End Status and End Date
The End Status indicates the reason a prior year student has not enrolled in the district during the current school year. All students with an end-dated enrollment must also have an End Status assigned to the end-dated enrollment. Users are not allowed to save an end-dated enrollment without an assigned End Status. However, this condition does not apply if the No Show checkbox is marked. If the No Show checkbox is marked, you can enter an End Status without an End Date.
No Show
A no show student is defined as a student who is enrolled in the school but never attends class and does not officially withdraw from the school. These enrollment records are ended after a certain number of school days, depending on district and/or state policy.
The No Show checkbox is NOT used for state reporting. End Status is used to determine No Show students. Please refer to the End Status section to determine the appropriate End Status for a No Show student. No Show students also require an Enrollment End Date in order to be excluded from reports.
Service Type
The Service Type is used to indicate the type of enrollment and the intended service the student receives. Service Types include: (P) Primary, (S) Partial, and (N) Special Ed Services.
To ensure you are assigning the proper service types to enrollments, please see your state documentation for more information.

Notes
P
Primary
This type of enrollment is a student's primary enrollment. This is the school the student attends all or most of the time. System settings determine whether a student can have multiple active primary enrollments at one time.

N
Special Ed Services
A Special Education enrollment indicates the student ONLY attends the school to receive special educations services.

Data entries made in the State Reporting Fields section of the Enrollments tool are unique to the state of Pennsylvania and may directly affect the way students are reported to the state department of education.
Every field on this editor except the following are included in state reports:
CT School Type
Career Technical Program
AUN of CT School

Updates to State Reporting fields overwrite previously entered data. To preserve this historical information, create a new Enrollment record when changes are needed. Deleting an Enrollment record is NOT recommended.

Resident District, Resident School, Funding District
Resident District and Funding District fields are used in state reports to indicate the school district where the student resides (Resident District) and the school district who receives the funding for the student (Funding District). Resident School indicates the school in which the student should attend based on school boundaries. The list of districts and schools is managed by the districts and can be modified in the System Administration > Custom > Attribute/Dictionary > Definition > District List attribute and System Administration > Custom > Attribute/Dictionary > Enrollment > Resident District, Resident School. State reports use the list of districts in the Definition list.

When a charter school contracts with another public entity to educate their student, the educating entity populates these fields with the charter school’s location code (4-digit building number) and the charter school’s administrative unit number (9-digit AUN). If a student changes charter schools mid-year, the educating entity must create a second Student Calendar Fact record using a different Calendar ID (key field). The Days Enrolled is attributed to each resident school district/charter school combination.

Identifies the state assessment(s) that a student is participating in throughout the given school year. This field will facilitate PDE parsing data for LEAs administering the test and support the creation of pre-code labels by various testing vendors.
LEAs not administering an assessment to a student are to use Code I.
LEAs administering an assessment indicate the appropriate code
The purpose of this field is to generate precode labels for the PSSA. This field is not used for PSSA Accountability. During the Accountability snapshot, this field can remain unchanged. Students in grades 3-8 must test in the PSSA (code B) or PASA (code A) per Chapter 4 requirements. The LEA should use Code I (Not Participating) for the student that is dual-enrolled, but being educated outside the LEA.
