| 1/15/2010 | Carl Perkins 2008-09 CDE 101 E2 report has been modified according to the new specifications. A major change is that the E2 report will only include students who are flagged in the new SSD.E1 field. The students flagged in the SSD.E1 field are the students that need to receive a survey. This field can only be updated by generating the E1 report. Even though you have previously run the E1 report it must be generated again prior to running the E2. After the SSD.E1 field is populated, this field can be used to generate Surveys and Address Labels in Query for the students flagged. | Carl Perkins E2 |

| 12/8/2009 | STAR Pre-Identification Form – The new STAR Pre-ID layout requires the new Hispanic/Latino indicator and new Race fields to be loaded into the STAR Pre-ID file. The program has been modified to handle loading the new Ethnicity (STU.ETH) and Race (STU.RC1 - STU.RC5) fields if located in the student record. If there is no student data in these fields the old Ethnicity code fields will be converted into the new STAR Hispanic/Latino Indicator and Race fields. When the Writing Wave file is created the only grades loaded will be grades 7 or 11. The grade ranges have also been modified according to the layout for students who will be assessed with CMA. A new button has been added to the form that will verify fields subject to monetary penalties if 3% or more are blank. A School tab has been added to the form to allow the selection of schools to be included when calculating the DISTRICT Continuously Enrolled flag. The calculation was processing all schools in the Enrollment (ENR) table. Therefore, students enrolled in summer or intersession schools that left before the end of that school’s calendar, would be considered as Not Continuously Enrolled in the District. Please note that this affects any district running STAR Pre-ID that has summer or intersession schools. | |
