* Please follow your PSU guidelines *

Please refer to the School Attendance and Student Accounting Manual (SASA) and/or your district coordinator.

59 of 170

Registration Requirements

The recommended required documentation for registering a student is listed below:

  • Student Birth Certificate
  • Parent Identification
  • Proof of Residency
  • Immunizations & Health Assessment (in new to NC Schools)
  • Custody documentation
  • School records - Transcript, report card, discipline record
  • Special Education records - IEP, 504’s, AIG

Some PSUs may allow a 30 day time period to turn in the required documentation.

60 of 170

NC Student Identification System

All public school students enrolled in NC must have a UID Number. Before enrolling new students in Infinite Campus, it is ESSENTIAL to search for the student in the North Carolina Student Identification System (Student UID) to avoid duplicating student records. For instructions on conducting a Student UID search, refer to the Student UID Search Quick Reference Guide.

Searching for a student in the NC Student Identification System is always the 1st step in the enrollment process whether or not it’s a new student or in-county transfer.

61 of 170

NC Student Identification System

Searching for a student in the NC Student Identification System is always the 1st step in the enrollment process whether or not it’s a new student or in-county transfer.

If you FIND a student record in the NC Student Identification System:

  • Enroll the student using the information exactly as it is shown in the UID system
    • If the information is incorrect in the UID system, you may correct it in Infinite Campus on the Demographics page after you have enrolled the student. The changes made in Infinite Campus will update the student’s data in UID.
      • EX: Ericka Harris, DOB 01/26/2008, UID system shows Erica Harris, DOB 01/26/2008 Enter the name as Erica Harris on the enrollment page and then update it in Infinite Campus on the Demographics page. You may update name, sex, or DOB information for a student.

If you DO NOT FIND a record when searching in the NC Student Identification System, proceed to the next step in the enrollment process.

New Student Registration Workflow

Done

Task

Use the Student Locator to search the state database for a record of a student being enrolled in another district in the state.

Review the search results to ascertain if this is the correct student. Altering an existing record to match an enrolling student will cause student records to be merged and will affect data integrity.

If a student was found at another district that meets the entered search criteria, select that student and follow the steps for enrolling the student in the new district.

If a student was not found, click the Create New Student button.

Enter Demographic information for the student.

Enter Enrollment information for the student.

Add an Address for the new student using the Add Address Wizard.

Add a Household for the student using the Add Household Wizard.

Use the Add Person option to create additional family members and guardians for this student.

Add Relationships for the new student by entering information on the Relationships tab.

Schedule the student into courses for the school year.

Student Locator Wizard

Navigation: Main Menu > Student Information > Student Locator Wizard

The Student Locator Wizard provides a way to search for existing students across the district, and when necessary, create new students. This tool can also be used to locate and update information for a specific student. The Student Locator searches ALL people in order to prevent duplicates.

64 of 170

Student Locator

Locate a Student: Searching for a student indicates whether or not the student (or person) already exists in Campus and when that student does not exist in Campus, a new student can be created. This avoids duplicate student records within Campus and provides a simple way to convert an existing person into a student.

  1. Enter search criteria for locating a student. Depending on the selected System Preference settings, a Last Name, First Name, and Sex, or State ID (preference set to No) or a Last Name, First Name, Sex, and Birth Date, or State ID (preference set to Yes) must be entered in order to activate the Search button. Additional search criteria can be entered as well. Hover over the results to see enrollment information for the student. The hover shows the dates of the student's most current enrollment, the school and grade level of the enrollment, as well as the student's guardians. When a student's most current enrollment is marked as No Show, the hover displays the student's previous district's enrollment.
  2. Click the Search button. Matching results display. On state-linked district editions, both the state and district databases are queried to find matching results. When the state database cannot be reached, a warning message displays indicating only the district database is being queried

Select a Student from the Search Results

  1. Select a student from the search results. The screen changes to the Student Information toolset. The arrow next to the student's name indicates the student is locally enrolled
  2. Navigate to the appropriate student tool to verify student information.

65 of 170

Student Locator

Once a student is selected from the search results, the Identity Information fields - Last Name, First Name, Middle Name, Suffix, Sex, Birth Date and Social Security Number - should not be modified. Only Update these fields on this screen if you entered the information incorrectly; otherwise these fields should be updated by creating a new record using the Identity tool. Ex: Last Name Change

Enrollments

Navigation: Main Menu > Census > Enrollments The Enrollments tool displays all occurrences of a student's enrollment in the district, listing all grade levels, all schools, etc. This tab lists the same information as the Enrollments tool in Student Information, but can be used when first enrolling a student in the district (as that person would not be considered a student by the Campus definition until an enrollment record exists).

Start Date = Date the student 1st attends school.

Enrollments

Enrollments When adding a new enrollment, a school and calendar need to be selected from the toolbar.

The student's current grade level for the selected school year displays in the Student header (and throughout all Student Information tools). This grade level displays in the search results and the list of enrollments in the Enrollment Editor.

To see specific information about an enrollment record, open the desired entry by clicking on the enrollment.

73 of 170

Enrollments

Enrollments The display of Enrollments follows this logic order:

  1. The active, primary enrollment from the active school year displays.
  2. If there is more than one active primary enrollment, the most current primary enrollment displays.
  3. If there is more than one active enrollment and no enrollments are primary, the most current one is used regardless of enrollment type (partial or special education).
  4. The most current, non-active primary enrollment in the active school year displays.
  5. The most current, non-active, non-primary enrollment in the active school year displays.
  6. If there are no enrollments in the active school year, no enrollments display.

To see specific information about an enrollment record, open the desired entry by clicking on the enrollment.

In the example above, the student has two active enrollments in different grade levels and different schools, only one enrollment is considered Primary. The grade level associated with the Primary enrollment - in this case, the grade 01 enrollment - displays in the search results, even when the school selected in the context is the most recently created enrollment record.

74 of 170

Schedule

Main Menu > Student Information > General > Schedule

The Walk-In Scheduler allows modification of a student's schedule, whether a student needs to drop and add a course, or a new student enrolls in the school at any time during the year. Changes made to the student's schedule occur in real time, which means when a student is added to a course section, the teacher of that course section can see the student was added to the course roster, and can record attendance for that student and begin tracking assignments for that student.

The Walk-In Scheduler is accessed from the Student's Schedule. Click the Walk-In Scheduler button in the action bar at the bottom of the page. Walk-In Scheduler is not available on monitors smaller than 1024 x 768 or on devices due to the amount of information visible in the Walk-In Scheduler.

Attendance

109 of 170

Overview

  • When a student is scheduled into a period, Campus optimistically assumes that all students will attend all courses that they are scheduled into.

  • Attendance in Campus is the process of marking when that is NOT true – Attendance is about “Absence”.

  • It is assumed a student is present for the duration of a period, unless an absence has been recorded.

  • Campus Attendance is then calculated by subtracting the number of minutes a student was absent, if any, from the total number of minutes the student was scheduled to be present.

Infinite Campus allows you to code attendance events for a student…

110 of 170

Attendance - Status

Present

  • Default Status – Student went to class. If not marked Absent, Student is Present

Absent

  • Student is not in class for all or ½ of the period

Tardy

  • Student is PRESENT in the building but not in class on time (this is assigned by the teacher)

Status represents the type of absent for the associated event.

111 of 170

Campus Instruction - Teaching Center

  • Click the Person icon to display the student roster fly out menu.

  • Students are Present (P) until marked Absent (A) or Tardy (T). (Tardy to class)
