12. K-12 Report Card: System Components The K-12 Report Card is a “Diagnostic Tool”, based on nationally recognized education domains, that will assist Case Managers in starting a conversation with the caregiver and others to identify and address the student’s current education needs. The Remote Data Capture (RDC) K-12 Report Card submission process will make K-12 Report Card data available within FSFN in report format. The K-12 Reports including the K-12 Report Card Detail and Due/Overdue Reports are designed to help Case Managers and other staff monitor student education outcomes and monitor submission timeliness. 12

13. K-12 Report Card Target Group Target Group for the K-12 Report Card Test during Fiscal Year 2012-2013 It is intended that for the Fiscal Year 2012-2013 test period, at a minimum, CBC Case Managers will submit K-12 Report Cards for children: 1) Ages 5 through 17 years; 2) Under Fla. Jurisdiction (residing within or outside of FL); and 3) Placed in Licensed or Non-licensed Out-of-Home Care settings. Note: Each CBC has the option to expand this target group as appropriate. The Remote Data Capture (RDC) application currently will allow K-12 Reports Cards to be submitted on any active FSFN participant ages 5 through 17 inclusive. 13

14. K-12 Report Card Protocol It is intended that K-12 Report Cards will be submitted every 30 days. K-12 Report Card ratings should be based on the Case Manager’s observations, information gathered and discussions with appropriate others (including the student) over the last 30 days. K-12 Report Cards will be submitted by the Case Manager responsible for visiting the child. 14
