SIS 2000+ Special Education History

Sec. 8, Edit / Exit / Delete a Program

Special Education History entries can be edited easily. The editing procedure is very similar to the steps encountered while entering a student in a program for the first time. Also, each entry must be maintained as the due process progresses by entering various time-sensitive tracking information. For instance, when a student is dismissed from a program, be sure to change their Status code and enter an Exit Date. Use caution when editing date fields so as not to create conflicts (caused by overlapping date ranges for programs that have been defined as mutually exclusive by their conflict identifiers.)
