Tutorial Header: 1. LOCATE STUDENT PROFILE IN CURRENT SCHOOL, Tutorial Content:
Start in the desired entity that should be the default and use the first 5 letters of the student's last name and then first 3 letters of the student's first name to find the student.
If you are unable to locate the student, check the ENTRY/ WITHDRAWAL records in the district entity 000. A student must have an open entry record in the desired school before it can be set as the default school.
To the left, select the ENTITY INFO option underneath the ENTITY record on the student's profile page.
For the picture shown, the student now has an active entry record at MCMS (003) but still has Wright Elementary (073) as the default. This will need to be updated so that MCMS (003) is the default entity.
Tutorial Header: 3. EDIT ENTITY TO BE THE DEFAULT, Tutorial Image: , Tutorial Content:
Once in the Entity Info section of the student's profile, select the EDIT button to the right to update.
In this area, you will choose the dropdown button and change the DEFAULT ENTITY field to "Yes".
After saving the updated default entity, it is recommended that you confirm that the student's profile is now showing the same entities.
Review of this student's record now shows that 003 is the default entity and matches the current entity.
As a student moves between schools, it may be possible that the DEFAULT entity does not match the active enrollment for the current school.
The process to update this can be done under a student's profile on the Student Management side of Skyward.
To access this report in Skyward, you must be in your specific entity (not 000). Once you are there, travel to Office -> Attendance -> Reports -> Absence Occurrence Report AO.
Once you get into the Absence Occurrence Report area, you will create a new template or edit your existing template. If assistance is needed, you can also request support from the district office to get a report set up for you and then clone it.
To create a new report, select the ADD button to the right, give your template a name, and confirm it is for the current school year.
The default will be for dates for the entire school year. When running this report at the start of the school year, this will be changed to one single day.
The first thing to do to set up your report is to define the Absence Type and Absence Reasons that will be used. Since this report is looking for any students marked with an "F" for First Day, the Criteria Options will be very limited.
For Absence Types, the one selection will be the F - 1st Day Present for School Yr option. Highlight that at the bottom and click the ADD button. Be sure to hit SAVE.
Teachers cannot input absences reasons but other staff members with access may have updated a student's record. To be certain all possibilities are available, click on the Absence Reasons button, SELECT ALL REASONS, and then SAVE.
Because you are only looking for students marked with an "F" for a specific day, change the Minimum field to a "1". This will ensure only students marked with an "F" in one of their periods is shown on the report.
The picture here shows that we are looking at each student by period and pulling the names of all those students marked with an "F for a specific date.
The default for this report will be to sort printed students by name. You can select how you want names to print with either the first name or last name listed first.
If you wish to sort students for your report by some other criteria, choose the Select Sorts button at the bottom and choose how to sort students.
