  3. It’s all about state reporting • State Reporting Fields that are often the same for a majority of your students: • Resident Status Code • County of Residence • System of Residency • EL • Primary Language • Student Status • Cessation of Services (Safety) • Migrant • State student resides in • Zip Code

  4. Editing Pages • Use HTML to edit fields • Two ways to make things easier: • Auto-fill – For drop-down menus, remove the blank at the top and put common info as first item • Add fields to central location – Registration Page, Enter/Leave pages

  5. Turning on & updating customization Your first step in customizing is to turn on the customization option. System -> Settings -> Customizations

  6. Turn on webpage management Next:

  7. Editing State pages for Auto-fill Most of the state pages you’ll need to edit are found in: admin\students\state\usa_ga\

  8. Code on state pages Change the following pages so that your district is the first one listed and there are no blanks at the top: \stateGA_countyofRes.html <td>County of Residence</td><td><select name="[01]county_residence"><option value="685">(685) Lamar County<option value="601">(601) Appling County<option value="602">(602) Atkinson County<option value="603">(603) Bacon County<option value="604">(604) Baker County \stateGa_SystemResidence.html <td class="bold">System of Residence</td></option><td><select name="[01]residence_district"></option><option value="601">601 Appling County</option><option value="602">602 Atkinson County</option> <option value=“685”>685 Lamar County</option>

  9. More State Pages Rearrange \stateGA_Primarylanguage.html so that the top one or two languages are the languages most often used. <td class="bold">Primary Language</td><td><select name="[01]primarylanguage"><option value="" selected >N/A (English) <option value="26">(26) Spanish<option value="05">(5) Chinese Do the same for \stateGa_Countries.html <tr class="~[evenoddrow]"><td class="bold">Country of Origin</td><td><select name="[01]NY_OriginCountry"><option value="2310">United States</option><option value="Mexico">Mexico</option><option value="China">China</option><option value="Afghanistan">Afghanistan</option> Change \stateGA_PlaceOfBirth.html so that 2310 (USA) is on top with no blanks. <td class="bold">Place Of Birth</td><td><select name="[01]GA_PlaceOfBirth"><option value="2310">2310 United States</option><option value="1440">1440 Mexico</option><option value="0010">0010 Afghanistan </option>

  10. Transfer Pages Add the following code to: admin\students\transferout.html admin\students\reenroll.html <tr class="~[evenoddrow]”> <td class="bold">Student Status for State Reports</td> <td><select name="[01]GA_StudentStatus"><option value="N" selected>(N) Normal<option value="R">(R) Retained<option value="W">(W) Withdrawn</option></select> </td> </tr>

  11. Registration / Enrollment Fields Simply adding the following ‘x insert’ codes will place the fields where they are most convenient. ~[x:insertfile;state/usa_ga/stateGA_Primarylanguage.html] ~[x:insertfile;inserts/GA_SysRes.html] ~[x:insertfile;inserts/GA_CountyofRes.html] ~[x:insertfile;inserts/GA_PlaceOfBirth.html]

  12. More State Fields To find more state fields that you may want to put on registration or other pages, check out other state pages: admin\students\state\logGA.html admin\students\state\SpecialGA.html But be aware that these pages may be updated at any time, so to make sure you always have the latest, check the documentation on PowerSource and join the monthly PowerSchool call.
