This utility allows you to activate students and create accurate First Day Counts and No Show records.

Activating students using this process allows you to identify No Show students and correctly enroll students who begin school after the first day of school. It also ensures that students who do show up for school have the proper enrollment dates for the district, campus, special programs, and first semester courses. All students are marked inactive before school starts, and as you take attendance, the students are activated as they show up in class. After a period of time (determined by each campus), any student who has not been activated is considered a No Show.

To activate students using this process, all students must be marked as inactive before the start of school, and each student's date of entry should be set to the first day of school. This occurs automatically during Move to Grade Reporting. Also, a student's date of entry into any special programs (i.e., special education, bilingual/ESL, GT, PRS, Title I, and any generic programs) and all first semester courses are set to the first day of school.
