ASCENDER Health Training Guide


The Health application provides school nurses with the ability to maintain health records for everything from immunizations to accidents. Records can be maintained for students as well as for staff.

The Health application gives school nurses the tools required to manage school health data in an efficient, cost-effective manner, thereby enabling them to concentrate on student health issues and not on paperwork.

NOTE: ASCENDER follows the Texas Minimum State Vaccine Requirements.


Health Directory

The Health directory is used to retrieve records for students in Health if you do not know the student ID. The page is accessed by clicking Directory on the Health Maintenance pages.

NOTE: If you are viewing data for a prior school year and you have been granted historical read-only access in Security Administration, the data is read-only.

Example of the directory on the Health Maintenance pages

❏ You can search for a student by last and/or first name. Other options allow you to narrow the search further. Enter data in any or all of the following fields:

  • In the Last Name field, type all or part of the student’s last name. For example, you can type sm to find all students whose last name begins with Sm. You can type up to 25 characters.
  • In the First Name field, type all or part of the student’s first name. For example, you can type jo to find all students whose first name begins with Jo. You can type up to 17 characters.
  • The Campus ID field displays the campus ID to which you are logged on. You can select another campus. Only campuses to which you have access are listed in the drop down.

  • In the Grade Level field, type a grade level to narrow the search to one grade level. The grade level must be two digits.
  • The Active Cd field indicates the status of the student records. The field is set to 1 (Active) by default. If necessary, you can type another code. The active code is one digit.

❏ Click Search. The students who meet the criteria entered are displayed.

  • If more students are retrieved than can be displayed on one page, you can page through the list.
