In Firefox, go to tools and options, and from here you can control the downloads.

Just is case you're wondering, in Office 2007 choose the Data tab, then click on From Text button on left.  It'll bring up the little wizard as before.  You should be fine from there on out.

Hello Chris,

We click on a student, under student Information, we have a field called Custom Fields, under that we have a field called Non-Custodial Parent, here is were we put there address and phone numbers.  I hope this helps.

Thank You Graci!
We have a couple more questions when we enter Program District School Code - do we select the custom code  and Technical Skill Attainment - not applicable?

Thanks,
Rebecca

One word of caution is that if you have a concentrator make sure you put in the proper technical skill attainment code which would be something other than by leaving the field blank.  If by chance you leave a blank for a concentrator it will give you an error in NSSRS Validation.  If you find you made a mistake and need to change a blank to another code and it will not fix by re-uploading the corrected file you may need to contact me or the helpdesk and we can do a delete of the old record.  Then we will have you send up the record again with the proper code.  It is not a key field but for some reason it is not allowing updates to that field at this time like most other non-key fields function.

Most of the people at the NSSRS workday yesterday at Kearney did NOT have access to the Post School Survey.  For those who could see it, it didn't run properly.  So the work around was to download the post school survey template from NDE at http://www.nde.state.ne.us/nssrs/Docs/99-9999_PROGRAMS_FACT_YYYYMMDDHHMM.xls and fill in the info. 

You can get a list of students to be reported from the Validation page under Programs Fact on the left side.  Change to last year and pull the info for Career Ed and choose the school as well as Concentrators.  Then submit.  It will list last year's concentrators.

Thank you so much!

Have a great weekend! :)

I got this fixed for Rebecca but just so everyone else knows the answer I am posting this.  You can try to run it up again with the proper technical skill attainment code but chances are it won't update the old record due to a glitch which is making that field non-updateable (if that is a word).  If this happens please contact me or the helpdesk and have the old (wrong)record deleted.  You can then send up the record with the proper code again and it should get rid of the error.  It is just that this field is not overwriting as it should be when the new value is entered so we have to go the delete and re-enter route for now.  

There is no set date you have to do EOY as there is when storing grades. You will only have to run it before the start of school.

I would recommend waiting until after the June 30th NSSRS deadline just in case you have to fix something.  We usually wait until the last week of July as our new year starts August 1.

Thank You Wayne and Bryan!

If you run it at the school level (not District) the drop down years should be there.

Depending on your school size will probably depend on how long it takes your file to run.  My suggestion is to begin your file upload in the evening when you go home and then it will be ready to upload to the NSSRS system the next morning.  Let me know if this works for you.

Thanks, I'll try that.

Summary Attendance is the one report that you can run per building. I got mine to run a whole lot faster by doing the elementary, middle and high schools separately.

In the admin side go to reports, run reports and under Grades and Gradebooks, select Teacher Gradebooks, you there can select which teacher and it will print grades for you.

Reports --> Run Reports --> Teacher Gradebooks should work.  You can select one or multiple teachers and one or more class periods.

Russ Masco, called me and gave me information.  They do have to be added to Student, Enrollment, Snapshot and attendance summary.

Were your students concentrators in more than one area?  This might be causing them to show up twice. 

My student summary attendance ran at least that long before opening.  I have another issue because my seniors showed up with 0s for their attendance.

Take a look at PowerSource article 10919.  If you have any blank ReEnrollment records this may give you the attendance errors you are seeing.  These blank records will have an impact on other reports as well.  The blank records will need to be deleted.
