Once a student is registered, then an enrollment record must be created to complete the process. Upon completion, the student will be included in your schools total enrollment figures and also be available to track attendance, etc. (See Figure 7)
Enrollment means to define a date when the student is first going to be present or is first expected to be present in your District and/or Building for the current or upcoming Academic Year.
Each student will, at the very least, have one (1) District Enrollment Record, one (1) School Building Enrollment Record and one (1) Academic Year Enrollment Record.

button. (See Figure 8)
Helpful Hint!
Do not modify a student’s existing record, you must click the add button and create a new entry or withdrawal enrollment record for the student.

Figure 8
After registering a new student you may:
Create their Enrollment Record immediately for the first day that you expect them to be in attendance in your building;
Helpful Hint!
It is strongly recommended that you do not enter an Enrollment Record for the upcoming Academic Year at the time you are registering a new student (into Kindergarten or Pre-school for example) if it is prior to your mass enrolling all students for a new school year. This option is suggested for students who will be present in the next day or two for the current Academic Year, although it may be better to wait until they actually show up.
1) wait and enter their Enrollment Record when they first arrive in your building
2) mass enroll them later with other students (see Mass Enroll Students).
If the student is not Enrolled immediately upon registering them, then access to any of their information requires that you select the None option for Enrollment on the Student Selection Filter page.

If the student is new to your District and School:
This date should be the date the student was first in attendance in your District. This date is not used or reported at this time, but i PASS will be developing a report that uses this date to determine how long a student has been enrolled in your District (basically for MCAS and other test result analysis along with how long a student has been in your building).
If the student is transferring in from another school within your District:
