This page allows you to create new forms, as well as delete and edit existing forms. There are three types of forms:
- Static forms can be created using the static documents you have already uploaded.
- Dynamic forms can be created using the columns you selected in previous steps.
- Standard forms are predefined district-level forms that are common throughout Texas. The forms cannot be edited.
A form must be added to a group in order to be accessible to parents. You can add a form to a group in a subsequent step using the Form Group Management page.
View forms:
Under Available Forms (right side), any existing forms are listed, including those that are added automatically.
The list includes the form name, type of form (i.e., standard, static, or dynamic), and the campus with which the form is associated (if applicable). If Campus is blank, the form is associated with all campuses in the district.
Some forms are included automatically and cannot be removed.
New Student Enrollment forms are dynamic forms. Several New Student Enrollment Forms are included automatically and already have columns (i.e., fields) added. These forms cannot be deleted or renamed; however, you can modify the default settings for each form column.

Edit or delete an existing form:
Under Available Forms (right side):
- To edit an existing form, including a New Student Enrollment form, click
under Options. The form opens on the Form Editor page where you can make changes. - To delete an existing form, click
under Options. You are prompted to confirm that you want to delete the form. Click OK.
You cannot delete a form if it belongs to a group or if data exists for the form (i.e., if a parent has submitted changes associated with the form).

If you uploaded any static documents, you must create a form with each document in order to make it accessible to parents.
