The Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) utilizes the Student Count Waiver Request form as part of the funding process for the Indian School Equalization Program (ISEP). The form is completed and submitted when a student is not physically present (at the school) to meet the funding attendance requirements. The form displays student demographics data and should be handled in the same manner as any document that includes personally identifying information (PII). Please see the Controlled Reports and PII article for more information.

Report Logic

Reports for the student currently selected.

Reports from the active school year calendar.

Calendar must be designated as 'Type R: Residential' or 'I: Instructional'. This determines the appropriate wording that displays on the form.
Calendar must have data entered in ISEP Mgmt. The report generates as 'No data exists for given report options ' if ISEP Mgmt data is not present. (System Administration > Calendar > IESP Mgmt)

Calculates submission deadlines to print on the form:

The Residential deadline is 14 calendar days after the last date of the school’s residential count period. The system looks at the ISEP Dates table to determine the last day of the school’s last count week and adds 14 calendar days.
The Instructional deadline is 10 days before the end of the school year. The system looks at the Calendar Day Detail to determine the last day of the school year marked School Day, Instruction, and Attendance and counts back 10 school days for this calculation.

Determines the Number of Days (Instructional or Residential) requested by calculating the number of School Days that occur starting with the start date and ending with the end date chosen on the editor (including dates entered). This value displays on the form.
