Attendance Zones (New Feature)

GUIDE: TxEIS Registration - Enroll Students Using Attendance Zones

Registration > Maintenance > District Profile > District Information > District Maintenance > Attendance Zones Options

❏ Added the tab which allows the district to enable the use of Attendance Zones for identifying street boundaries and properly enrolling students at the correct campuses according to where they live.

Attendance Zone Options tab


Registration > Maintenance > District Profile > District Information > Attendance Zones

❏ Added the page which allows you to manually add or update street segment information for Attendance Zone boundaries, including campus assignments and bus eligibility. This data is used to verify student addresses and ensure that students are attending the appropriate schools for their area. You can update data for the current school year or next school year.

District Attendance Zones page showing CY tab


Registration > Maintenance > District Profile > District Information > Attendance Zones (Street Directory Search)

❏ Implemented the Street Directory Search pop-up window which opens when you click Directory from the Attendance Zones page.

From the directory, you can search for and retrieve a particular street segment.

The directory includes the Selection Begins With check box. If selected, the search retrieves all streets beginning with those that match the characters entered. If not selected, only matching street names are retrieved.

Street Directory Search pop-up window


Registration > Maintenance > District Profile > Tables > CY Transfer Factor
Registration > Maintenance > District Profile > Tables > NY Transfer Factor

❏ Added two tabs which allow you to create codes for various conditions where enrollment at a capped campus can be overridden. The CY tab codes apply to the current school year, and the NY tab codes apply to the upcoming school year. The System codes will be loaded using a SQL statement.

CY Transfer Factor tab


Registration > Maintenance > Campus Profile > Campus Information Maintenance > Control Info

❏ Added the following fields:

Capped To Campus, which is used to prevent over enrolling students at a particular campus. You can select the campus at which a student will be enrolled if the campus you are logged onto is capped. For a student to be allowed to enrolled at the capped campus, the student's entry date must be later than the Capped Date, and that student's Transfer Factor must be 0 (out of district). This field is only enabled if Enable Attendance Zones is selected on Registration > Maintenance > District Profile > District Information > District Maintenance > Attendance Zone Options.

Capped Date, which allows you to enter the date after which students can be enrolled at the capped campus if Capped To Campus is used. The date must be a valid school or working date.
