Adjust Online Enrollment to support separate Education Levels for Parents/Guardians
Adjustments needed because of changes CALPADS is making for Parent/Guardian information on the SINF file: Data is now being collected separately for Guardian 1 and Guardian 2: First Name, Last Name, Education Level.
Move current question regarding Parent Ed Level into section collecting Parent/Guardian Info instead of the Student info. Use new field on Contacts to hold this information (CON.ELV) - same codes as old STU.PED field

Summer ELPAC Testing - Create process to run in current year (Before Rollover)
With the changes to TOMS and CALPADS, there is a need to allow the creation of SENR files and SELA records in the current year database to allow testing during the upcoming summer. Currently the process requires waiting until after Rollover process and run it in the new year database.
This solution will leverage the Next School, Next Grade and Next Special Program fields, and create enrollment records using the Next School Start Date from the School Options page. It will be important for schools using this process to have the data in these fields be correct.
A new tab…

Update US School K-12 Entry Date with Earliest K-12 Date returned by CALPADS SSID Extract
When requesting SSIDs for new students, CALPADS is now returning the Earliest K-12 School entry Date. If the date stored in the US School K-12 Date in the Language Assessment screen is different or blank, update the LAC.USS with the date from CALPADS.
Note this change will not be done until CALPADS resolves Known Issue 5734: SSID Extract pulling most recent enrollment date instead of earliest K-12 enrollment date.

Adjustments needed because of changes CALPADS is making for Parent/Guardian information on the SINF file: Data is now being collected separately for Guardian 1 and Guardian 2: First Name, Last Name, Education Level.

Create CALPADS SPRG 185 Records for TK from Student TK Grade Enrollment instead of PGM
Using PGM to generate SPRG 185 records for TK students is redundant as Aeries already has the -1 grade level for TK students. Adjust the CALPADS SPRG extract to process student ATT/ENR data for the TK Grade Level to generate SPRG 185 records. PGM 185 could still remain and continue to work, but schools should have the option to not use PGM.

CALPADS Extracts
The SPRG extract has been enhanced to handle program code 185 for Transitional Kindergarten students. No records will be needed in PGM. The program records will be dynamically inserted into the SPRG extract for those students who need it, with appropriate beginning and ending dates.

Test Scores - Option to Display Test Scores by Date Without Grade Level Headings
We would like the option to display test scores by date, not with grade level headings (see image). When data is displayed by year and grade separately, they are out of timeline order. The grade headings get displayed out of consecutive order. Also, could this option be applied to filtering by Test ID?

LTEL Import needs to be updated for the new file format
The full state Long-Term English Learner (LTEL) file from the California Department of Education has changed formats from the previous year. The file is unable to be processed in Aeries in the new format in the LTEL Import function.
