Please add the school name, sign and fax changes to 381-4943. • Address changes are made for the entire household.

A closer look at enrollments • The enrollments tab will show enrollment records for the student’s educational career in FCPS going back to the 07-08 school year. You may also see enrollment history that has been imported from other Kentucky school districts. • Enrollment records are broken into four major sections: • General Enrollment Information • State Reporting Fields • Special Ed Fields • District Defined Elements Registrar Discussion Points
A closer look at: General Enrollment Information • Schedule – Most schools only have one schedule; “Main.” Schools with multiple schedule structures need to be careful which schedule is chosen. • Grade – The grade level associated with the student. • 00 – Kindergarten • 99 – 4 year olds • 98 – 3 year olds • 97 – 2 year olds • Class Rank Exclude – Your counselor will alert you if this checkbox should be checked. • Start Date – The date the student came to be educated. • No Show – Checked only if the student was expected to attend, and never attended. Typically only used prior to the beginning of the school year and on day 1. • End Action – Used at the end of the year to identify retentions. • Service Type – Always primary unless the student is shared between two buildings. • Start Status – Indicates why the student was enrolled in our school district • End Status – Indicates where the student went after withdrawing. • Dropout Reasons – Chosen when a student drops out. • Start Comments – When a student enrolls from outside of FCPS, it helps to type what school and district the student enrolled from. • End Comments – When a student withdraws to a school outside of FCPS, it helps to type what school and district the student enrolled in.
