The End-of-Year process is where the ACTIVE students will be ‘rolled’ to their Next School & Next Grade, therefore, it is very important that the information directing PowerSchool what to do with student’s data be correct. These items must be completed prior to SIS Team running the End-of-Year Process.

Start now - due June 5th
___ Retained Students
Start Page > Select Student > Courses and Programs > Scheduling Settings
Change their Next Year Grade to their current grade level & Next School Indicator to your school on the Scheduling Setup page. (This step will prevent seniors from being automatically graduated.)
___ Active Students transferring to another VUSD school
Start Page > Select Student > Courses and Programs > Scheduling Settings
Leave the student ACTIVE, change the Next School and Next Grade on the Scheduling Setup page. Make sure you notify the other school via email / via phone so that they are aware.
NOTE: If the student is Pre-Registered or Transferred Out (inactive), then the student will NOT be ‘rolled’ to the Next School. You will have to transfer these students.
Pre-Registered: Select Student > Student Profile > VUSD Links > Functions > Transfer Pre-Reg Student to Another School
Transferred Out: Select Student > School Enrollment > Transfer to Another School
___ Run Next Year Schedule Warnings
Start Page > Data and Reporting > Reports > VUSD Reports > Next Year Schedule Warnings
Look at the warning for each student listed and determine if the data is correct. If not, change the appropriate item, then rerun the report until every warning listed is for correct data. This will show students marked to be: Retained, Demoted, Moved to another school, Skipping a grade Level, Invalid grade levels for Next School, Pre-Reg students with invalid next grade, etc.
NOTES:
- You can sort on any column by clicking on the column title.
- This report only looks at ACTIVE students, NOT Pre-Registered or Transferred Out students.
- You can right click on the blue student #, select Open link in new tab to go directly to that Student’s Scheduling Setup page to make a change.
