Use this option to associate one State Course Code with several courses in a building. Optionally, you may update the State Course for courses individually on the Course Catalog page.
Select the Building, select the State Code and then in the 1-Part Courses section of the page, select/enter the courses that should be associated with this particular State Code. Select 'No' for the Needs Recalculation field.
PowerSchool has loaded State Courses into eSchoolPlus for you. If the State has added a State Course Code and we have not updated your system yet, you may enter the new code here. You only need to enter the State Code, Description, and check the Active flag. All of the other fields will not be used for New York State Reporting.
Mark Types
Menu path: From the Administration menu, choose Mark Reporting Setup, choose Setup, and then select Mark Types.
The elementary buildings must have the Mark Type as FG (Student Grade Detail state reporting code) from the Administration, Mark Reporting Setup, and Mark Types pages. This mark type was also used in prior years to download the STUCLGRADE (Student Class Grade Detail) records. If the mark type is blank, a mark of P will be posted.
Follow these steps to download the STUCLGRADE (Student Class Grade Detail) records:
Add the mark type of FG in the Mark Types setup.
Mass Load the mark type to all elementary building courses that must be reported.
Run the Scheduling/RC Synchronization (menu path: from the Mark Reporting menu, choose Utilities, choose Build Report Card Data, and then select Scheduling/RC Synchronization.)
Run the download.
