GED Participants and Graduates

Coordinate with the GED instructor (Ann-Margaret Utt) directly to Create New School Enrollment on the Transfer Info page of PowerSchool with the start of the GED program participation using W099/E099 entrycodes.

To find the GED Students in PowerSchool, you might need to check the Include Remote Enrollments checkbox.
Search for the Homeroom with the name of the GED Instructor (Ann-Margaret Utt).
EXAMPLE: /Entrydate>=8/9/2023;home_room contains Utt
Look for GED students missing the GED Program Code:
/Entrydate>=8/9/2023;home_room contains Utt;S_VA_STU_X.GED_Program_Code#2
All GED Participants need the GED Program Code set for the Student Record Collection Report (SRC)

In addition, the GED Graduates need these data fields populated in PowerSchool: The following fields need to be populated for all GED graduates and the same settings need to be made on the Schedule Setup page. Pay careful attention to the Graduation Date and exitdate. These dates need to line up with the GED Instructor's records. Contact the GED Coordinator directly to ensure all the information is reflected in PowerSchool for the students at the student's Home School.

Note: The importance of the Attendance page needs to be addressed between the High Schools and the GED Instructor. All of the codes must be accurate for the State reports to be accurate as well. Use the full set of Present, UNX, RLP, RLE, RLU and others where appropriate.
