CEIS is reported only for districts required to provide such services and districts which voluntarily set aside a portion of funding to provide such services.

  15. Test Status: Code set change: ‘F’ is no longer valid. “Test Status“ is used to determine the reason a student is not tested. It also affects WSAS scoring and reporting. Expected for 3rd Friday of September records.

  16. Years in US Schools: May be carried forward during Create Student Record Process. No change in definition or code set. Expected for Count Date records.

  17. Exit Type and Return to Regular Education: Exit Type ‘TNC’, Transfer to a WI school not covered by WSLS; Known to be continuing, is no longer valid when Return to Regular Education is ‘N’, No. Such students are expected to be enrolled in the WSLS and reported to the ISES as Parent Placed Private students.

  29. Areas in Need of Improvement

  30. Meeting Due Dates: • Student records are due by the ‘Key Date’. • Review and revision provides time to compare and respond to data from other districts. • Public Reporting Timeline • October 1 – WSAS Roster #1 • End of October – WSAS Roster #2 • November 1 – IDEA Exit & Discipline Federal Reporting • December – E-Rate funding estimates, Title funding estimates, Charter Enrollment • January 1 – FNS enrollment by economically disadvantaged status • January to April – State and Federal Reporting

  31. Residency Clarification: • Section II provides guidance for excusal from compulsory attendance. • Section III relates primarily to PI-1563, not the WSLS and ISES. • Spec Ed response provides guidance similar to section III which also applies to WSLS and ISES. • WSLS / ISES response will be published later this spring.

  32. Testing Labels: Improve quality of testing labels and ensure delivery to appropriate district by completing submission of ISES 3rd Friday of September (CD) records by 9/28/09. Priorities to meet this goal: • Update / assign WSLS through the 3rd Friday of September. • Encourage districts to send Locate / Assign and Exit / Update files weekly. • Provide appropriate Primary Disability and ELP Code in ISES 3rd Friday of September records.

  33. Transferring SIS: Common Issues: • Mismatch of enrollment dates in WSLS and new SIS • Missing / unavailable attendance data • Uniqueness problems with Local ID 1 DPI Requests: • Encourage districts to maintain relationship with previous vendor through end of fall collections. • Encourage districts to complete the conversion in the summer rather than in September. • Provide a list of new clients to the DPI Help Desk at the beginning of the school year.

  34. Future Enhancements

  35. Race / Ethnicity: Change in Definition ISES will continue to collect the five racial/ethnic categories New guidelines for multiple-racial/ethnic categories Changes must be implemented by fall of 2010 for the 2010-11 school year

  36. NGA Graduation Rate High school graduation rate must be calculated using the NGA Graduation Rate by 2011-12. A transitional graduation rate will be used in the interim.

  37. NGA Graduation Rate Equation on-time graduates by year X . first time 9th graders in year X-4 + transfers in – transfers out On-time graduates are students receiving regular diplomas within 4 years of first enrollment in 9th grade without exception for disability or English proficiency. Transfers out may not include dropouts or students not known to be continuing.
